*We* say “Nazi” as if it’s a bad thing. Platner’s fellow far-leftists have no problem with it at all. Radical, brutal socialism is their nirvana.

Rumors of Platner’s CERTAIN (or even probable) defeat by Collins in November are greatly exaggerated.

The couple of tiny twigs we have to hang our hats on in Maine are:

1. Logic: “People aren’t really going to vote for a NAZI, are they?” Since when do Democrat voters vote logically?

2. Collins has a track record of trailing in polls and then coming back to win, and what happened in the past is surely going to happen again so we’re OK.

It’s just barely possible that her luck runs out someday, perhaps in a little over 4 months. She’s ancient, all she’s got going for her is being anti-conservative and the fact that her opponent is reprehensible. And still she trails, at least for now.

Democrats likely feel that they’ve weathered the worst of the tempest-in-a-teapot around Platner, and they’re probably right.
