Maryland Politics and Political Communication, 1950-2005 is not a
survey of all that occurred between 1950 and 2005. Rather, this
book focuses on a set of interesting political events in which
communication is a very important variable. These events, be they
elections or episodes of governance, are also-arguably-the most
dramatic ones during the period. It begins with an examination of
George Wallace's 1964 and 1972 campaigns in the state's Democratic
presidential primary, considers William Donald Schaefer's
flamboyant communication strategies as Baltimore mayor and the
vicious 1986 U.S. Senate campaign between Democrat Barbara Mikulski
and Linda Chavez, and runs through the 2002 gubernatorial race
between Kathleen Kennedy Townsend and Robert L. Ehrlich. Sheckels
highlights the similarities and differences between political
communication at state and national levels and looks forward to
questions and scenarios that may emerge in future elections.
