Last night’s portrait unveiling, held at St. John’s College in Annapolis, was heavy on tradition and relatively light on politics, according to the AP.

“It’s not about looking to the future,” Ehrlich told reporters before the event. “It’s about celebrating a great first lady and obviously our administration, but we’re really not going to be discussing anything about the future this evening.”
He continues:
The audience of more than 600 was obviously pro-Ehrlich and applauded loudly and yelled “four more years” and “2010″ as the former governor was introduced.
The event was emceed by Edward Norris, who played a role in both O’Malley’s mayoral administration in Baltimore and Ehrlich’s cabinet. Norris was O’Malley’s police commissioner until he was tapped by Ehrlich to be the head of the Maryland State Police in 2003. Norris resigned from the state police after being indicted in a federal probe and served six months in prison for misusing city police funds in Baltimore.
