Think ACU must be counting some procedural votes among their "key votes" which would keep the Maine sisters' averages up. If they only counted "last chance", dispositive votes on each issue (DADT, DREAM, TARP, whatever) and not all the cloture votes, test votes, leadership votes, resolutions, etc., I think they might score lower.
The Republican party itself should be put on notice that both Snowe and Collins must be kicked out of the Republican party or else conservatives will no longer support them.
These blatant progressive Republicans need to be made an example of. They are perverts and socialists. They are the enemies of conservatives.
Swede, British, Irish? My Maine family is all of that heritage and we’re almost 100% Conservative. My theory for the liberalism in Maine is liberal out-of-staters moving to Portland, Augusta, etc, and a large number of poor who aren’t too proud to live on our dime. Another reason could be the large number of my liberal generation who have never left the state to know any other life. Swedish, Brit and Irish immigrants in the late 19th & early 20th century were hardworkers, not moochers.
