The problem is not that the poll has Collins at 47% and that voters are lukewarm to giving her another term. Platner being at 49% and not being at 10% with everything that has been revealed about him is what is extraordinary - has the press done that good of a job of spinning him into the “flawed everyman” that he could have that much support, or are voters really that nuts up in Maine?

Funny how this article left out Georgia, Michigan and New Hampshire that have competitive races in which the Dems may loose. Shocking I know

False dichotomy.

I live 13 miles from the Maine border, and Platner is as good of a lock as you can find.

In NH, Sununu could flip the seat because our Mayor Pete wannabe congressman (who is the Democrat nominee) isn't a good campaigner - but the "no RINOs" caucus may be enough to beat Sununu in November.

Why Platner will win:

1) He doesn't look like a corpse

2) He's a real man

3) The phony "Nazi" and "woman hater" shit is an example of the right trying to use leftist talking points in an unironic way, which always fails.
