even if she manages to swing PA and MI now, she has lost. That one EV from Maine would put Trump at 270.

Stephen King has the other three in the trunk of a ‘58 Plymouth Fury and is heading to Canada with them.

That’s a big car so he’ll have plenty of room in the back seat for Whoopi Goldberg and all the other liberals that promised to leave the country if Trump won.

He gets 307 when all said and done. Borderline landslide.

Don’t we wish? These people never have the integrity to do what they say yet they continuously gripe about the ethics of others.

That’s more than likely but it’s still worth noting that she really has no path left to 270.

The media and worthless prognosticators just delayed recognizing this to keep suspense going. By winning WI and clearly leading in this district, it was clear before midnight Trump had exactly 270 even without PA and MI.

The Democrat party in Maine is a trainwreck - 6 years (so far) of raving, hateful LePage Derangement Syndrome, while he balanced the budget and is moving the state in the right direction. usewd to be all blue - but meanwhile, Republican Governor, one Republican Rep, one Republican Senator, probably wake up to Republican Senate (maybe House) and now one Republican EV.

The media hates it.

I love vacationing in Maine. It’s kind of a tradition to go up there and eat lobster until we’re sick of it. The only problem is I have to drive through NY or Mass to get there. It’s another tradition of mine to stop only once in Massachusetts to take a dump.

I was going to move to Maine but I want less winter, not more so it’s looking like Arizona for me. I will miss your delicious lobsters. :(

There are plenty of businesses here that will fly them overnight to anywhere in the country.

I would like to leave this area during the winter months too, by the way.
