“Is there someone who can make our last pitch to Gov?”

 

I sent that email to a colleague and a lobbyist first thing this morning.

 

We have a bill where the outcome is uncertain, and Governor O’Malley’s support would be very helpful.

 

We quickly decided on who would be the best person to lobby the Governor.

 

The highlight of today’s floor session was a visit from Ravens receiver Torrey Smith, the Lombardi trophy for winning the Super Bowl in his grasp.

            Governor O’Malley joined him on the rostrum, then stepped aside for the picture taking.

            “I’m the best person to lobby the Governor,” I audibled to myself.

            I made my pitch and got a positive  response.

            Results to be known before the clock runs out on the session.
