We traded Olympia Snowe for Angus King in 2012 here in Maine. Despite her center of the road voting record, Angus is 50% worse. It does matter, and sometimes you need to be happy with what you have because the alternative is worse.

I think it is normal to expect republicans in the north to be RINOs. But there's no excuse for Texan John Cornyn , who is chomping at the bit to pass amnesty.

Olympia Smowe gave us Obamacare by casting the vote to give the Senate Finance Committee the 60% they needed to move it out of committee. No reasonable and sane human could have imagined it would not succeed on the Senate floor when the Dems at the time had the floor. So you have someone who you say is 50% worse than Snowe? On every vote that mattered, all I can remember is that she wasn’t there to keep the wolves at bay.

Snowe always was a progressive, period. End of story.

Olympia Snowe voted mostly with the rats, she was a RINO. Angus King is a Independent so much has not changed and you should not be surprised

Angus the "Independent" gets 0% from Conservative Review. Even Dingy Harry gets 2%.
