“I think he got them [the votes] because of [Greg] Maddux and [Tom] Glavine,” Schilling said of Smoltz on WEEI’s “Dennis and Callahan” show Wednesday. “The fact that they won 14 straight pennants I think… his Swiss Army knife versatility… I think he got a lot of accolades for that, I think he got a lot of recognition for that and he’s a Hall of Famer so — and I think the other big thing is, I think he’s a Democrat, and so… I know that as a Republican that there’s some people that really don’t like that.”

I'm a republican and I cringed when I read that headline

I would guess he is correct.
Posted on 1/7/15 at 6:24 pm to RedRifle
Well that is a stupid reason, but he should be in over Smoltz
Posted on 1/7/15 at 6:28 pm to RedRifle
No reason why he shouldn't be in

I would be hard-pressed to believe the majority of people in the higher-ups in MLB are not Republicans.

victim complex
And I imagine most followers of baseball skew conservative. Certainly more so than the NFL or NBA.
