Gov. Ehrlich goes back to college

For the 29th or 30th time in Robert Ehrlich?s 20-year political career, Professor Rick Vatz?s “Persuasion” class at Towson University heard from the man who is now governor and thinks he?s learned a thing or two about persuasion.

“Let?s just pretend I have a hostile major newspaper in my state,” Ehrlich told the large lecture hall. Vatz, an unabashed fan and friend of Ehrlich, had already introduced him with a five-minute rant about The (Baltimore) Sun which won?t print the professor?s letters.
