Gansler Clarifies Remark About Brown’s Iraq War Service – Attorney General and gubernatorial hopeful Doug Gansler was in Bethesda on Monday, when he told the Tech Council of Maryland that rival Anthony Brown’s military service in Iraq didn’t amount to leadership experience.

“You know, his ads are about how we was a lawyer in Iraq and that’s all fine and good but this is a real job. We need to have somebody who actually has leadership experience and done budgets,” Gansler said.

That drew rebukes from some veterans groups. Gansler later said the comment was made in response to a question about Brown’s role in the state’s failed healthcare exchange. [Daily Record]
