The Democratic Party is at war with itself — and in Maine, the fight has spilled into the open.
Graham Platner, an alleged rapist with a Nazi tattoo on his chest, won the Democratic nomination for United States Senate last month, beating the candidate the party establishment had recruited by a commanding 53-point margin.
For months, Republicans and others had warned that Platner was unfit for the job.
The Democrats did not care.
As soon as party leaders saw polling that suggested he could beat Republican Sen. Susan Collins in November they embraced him, hosting him in Washington, DC, and pledging as much campaign cash as he needed.
His baggage didn’t matter. His poll numbers did.
Then the numbers turned, and Platner’s lead collapsed into a dead heat.
That’s when fresh allegations of Platner’s monstrous behavior toward women appeared to confirm what Republicans had been saying for months — and within hours, the man Democrats had celebrated as their rising star became radioactive.
So the machine moved in for the kill — yanking endorsements, choking off the money, threatening to abandon the Maine Senate race entirely unless he got out.
Within days, the nominee Maine Democrats had chosen was gone, run out of his own campaign by the very same people who had gladly leaped on his bandwagon before its wheels came off.

First pounce. Then feast.
Hosting him in Washington DC, they all choked their chicken in portable toilets.
Never fear, GOP is great at snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.
Yeah, I got a good chuckle out of this wishful thinking.
These are not serious people. Dishonest, dishonorable, and very dangerous, but not serious.
That’s the way it should be when you think about it. You know that 17th amendment stuff.
There it is.
"One who puts on his armor should not boast like one who takes it off." (I Kings 20:11)
Indeed.
that’s the party with which we grew up—
-—this R configuration is better....with Cornyn, McConnell, Tillis GONE, and a new senator from SC.
You should get on board and assist, rather than dwell on past weaknesses
“Never fear, GOP is great at snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.”
No guts, no balls. Some gutsy PACs should run Willie Horton style ads against the Democrats. For example, use the picture of that fiend standing over a cringing Iryna Zarutska.
Let them all move to Cuber to get themselves straightened out.
Still ZERO "elite" arrests.
Still ZERO impeached judges.
Kyle Rittenhouse granted us more justice than 5-1/2 years of Trump.
“this R configuration is better....with Cornyn, McConnell, Tillis GONE, and a new senator from SC.”
I agree and Massie also gone.
Never fear, the fickle finger of fate has thrown a new game. Soon Dems will be showing pictures of an ICE “murderer” standing over the body of a legal immigrant, who wasn’t even their target for action. Republicans likely to stay home in droves.
Those who fail to study history are doomed to repeat it. That’s what the GOP is hoping for...just ignore their past and let them keep doing it!
