Susan Collins and Janet Mills are prime examples as to how unorganized the conservative movement is in Maine. After the 2010 election we had a conservative governor and republican legislature. And here we are today, with the democrats/moderates dominating the state.
We’ve had horrible vision and leadership from Higgins Street, the gop headquarters. We’ve had folks on our county and town committees that talk a good game, but that’s it. In order to have a chance to take back the state, we’ve got to organize, knock on doors day after day and educate Mainers as to the true nature of establishment politics. Social Media doesn’t move the needle. Making a personal connection wit the voter is what’s important. The left never stops and we can’t, we have to be relentless when it comes to taking our message directly to the voter.
Earlier this year when I visited Maine, my first stop was in Moosehead lake, then Bangor, Bar Harbor and Portland.
It was absolutely sickening how much things were changing during my drive from Moosehead lake as I was getting closer to Bar Harbor.
I knew that the coastal Maine was liberal, but didn’t realize it was that liberal.
Great post! RINOs are already defecting. Sure, there's a little whining on the part of some Marxist BLM/Antifa activists that Harris/biden better give them what they want, but basically, the entire Democrat Party is still 100% unified and in total lock-step with what the fake-news MSM claims is "President-Elect Biden."
Republicans around the country are all over the map (in terms of their views regarding what President Trump should do). Many Republican politicians are trying to calculate their political futures: Should I congratulate a "President-Elect Biden," or say I support Biden but qualify that by saying it's highly unlikely Trump's legal challenges will find anything, or should I say I look forward to working with Biden but let's give the process "time to play out," etc. All over the map, while Democrats 100% unified and "relentless," as you say.
