A lot of good that does if the Left takes full control of the seat.

Her vote has been critical in the past, both good and bad. All of the good votes would have also been bad if a Dem had the seat. And this country would be much worse for it. A stacked SCOTUS, courts, etc. She blocked that. She voted for Kavanaugh - and she took the brunt of some of the most outrageous attacks from the Left because of it - threatening letter sent to her husband claiming it contained deadly poison to kill him, other threats, sending cardboard cutouts of male genitalia to her office, etc. The Left can never be rewarded for that with her scalp.

Unlike Murkowski, she represents an actual blue state. She has also never claimed to be a conservative - she’s always been honest about her philosophy. A YouTuber called “Red Eagle Politics” who is no slouch when it comes to challenging and removing Republicans he disagrees with has called her an “authentic RINO” and overlooks her based on her honesty and the state she represents.

Perhaps Maine will move more to the right in future years and her successor can be more conservative. But for now, we have to live in actual reality.

Interestingly, this seat has almost always been held by a Republican: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=biPJ1lPz9FI

Like any Blue state, ME is Red except in the inner cities, which are full of brainwashed government-loving parasites.

ME can be turned Red with the right leadership.

Let’s just trade her. We can get Ossoff in GA, maybe James in MI or Warner in VA.

Let her go.
