Republicans Collins and Snowe of ME both voted “Yea”…now there is a “shocker” (Sarcasm). Maybe those two mental midgets should just follow that King Mental Midget Specter on over to the Dimocrat Party!
Pfft! I’m at the point I don’t even look at the letter behind their name anymore. Just listen to what they say, watch what they do, and that’s all I need to know. That “R” doesn’t mean diddly.
I’m from Maine, Collins and Snowe are my Senators (shudder) What can I do personally to make sure these two don’t get elected again!!!! They do not represent the people of Maine! Only their own interest. They seem to have forgotten where they came from. What ever happened to good ol’ Yankee common sense?
Wow Lynn, I’m sorry to hear that.
You’ve got quite a battle on your hands. I’ve been wondering what happened to your area for quite a while now. Been hoping it wasn’t mass insanity. 
What can you do? Well, y’all need to find a strong conservative, recruit volunteers, and y’all work your hinders off to get those two RINOS out of office.
