Like Chevy Chase Would Let That Happen . . .
[Ben Cardin] appeared surprised during the exchange on NewsChannel 8 when Steele quizzed him about the start and end points of Metro's proposed Purple Line . . . Cardin started to answer, sputtering, incorrectly, "Chevy Chase" before stopping abruptly and snapping, "I'm not going to answer your question."Up until now, Cardin's been running a good campaign . . . is he really letting the people who nearly killed the Purple Line trample him like this?
You've got some serious explaining to do, Benny boy. You can't just barnstorm through College Park and then refuse to admit you haven't figured out where the Purple Line is going to go.

I think Cardin may have been more accurate than he knew when he said Chevy Chase. The Purple Line would nominally start at the Bethesda Metro stop but it immediately enters Chevy Chase as soon as it leaves the station. Of course, this is precisely why it is so controversial in Chevy Chase.
Look at this morning's Post.
Steele held his Purple Line rally at the wrong Metro station.
Another "gaffe" neutralized.
The Grosvenor stop would have been a sensible choice if Steele had played it smart. It is more easily accessible for people carrying equipment in a truck needing parking than Bethesda. But when you get up in Cardin's face about not knowing, and you don't know.... I mean really.
