The New York Times resident alarmist propagandist Andrew Revkin weighed in with a risible hit piece chock full of the usual tropes.

Four environmental groups endorse Kratovil, criticize Harris

Democrat Frank Kratovil received endorsements from four environmental groups on Monday including Clean Water Action, Environment Maryland, the Maryland League of Conservation Voters, and the Maryland Sierra Club.

In a joint statement, the four groups bashed Kratovil's opponent, state Sen. Andy Harris (R-Cockeysville), and praised the state's Attorney from Stevensville. "It is essential that we continue to have members of Congress who will stand up and speak out to protect the Chesapeake Bay," said David Phelps, national political director for Clean Water Action.
