Her DADT and START votes are now a bridge too far. Health Care flirtations and Financial reform gave me indigestion, as did earmarks, but this is as serious as it gets: aiding and abetting our political opponents in an unprecedented un-Americam un-democratic lame-duck cram-down. Those votes make Oly my personal number one electoral target now for 2012. I cannot take the unreliability any more. I would rather see a (D) there from ME (as with CT) than sweat whether she can be wheedled and coerced to see things Rightly.
Somebody please tell me where should I be place my online marketing/technology efforts and/or money to see Oly Snowe challenged and ousted. If we cannot find a national fundraising place online for her specific removal, I will start one of my own.
I saw this, but not sure there is coalescence or if this fellow (no grudge nor brief) is electable, or just another grassroots rushed mistake waiting to happen: http://www.damboiseforsenate.com/
And this: http://paintmainered.ning.com/group/mainersforsnoweremoval OMG the level of web (and spelling) sophisticado is appalling.... I mean really: Ning?
And Maine Refounders on various sub-sites.
ASIDE: Does nobody with conservative credentials understand the web AT ALL? Feel free to call or write if you need help.
Freedom Works and other places have taken no position I can discern. The time is now in the run-up to 2012.
Let me know if it is time for a new site to pass the hat for a challenger to Snowe.
Snowe Removal by Money Bomb if need be.
Virginia? Are you kidding me?
What happened to make Maine liberal? It isnt a very populous state.
I really am curious. I havent been there myself since 1969. So, my memory of the people is very dated.

All I can say is....[coughs], but you might want to read this.
"Dodge lives in the High Head section of Harpswell, a thin peninsula jutting into Harpswell sound. With homestead exemptions, the property, which is owned by his mother, is valued at around $740,000, according to the town assessor's office."
"Dodge says he scratches out a living with his freelance writing. However, his father, Arthur Dodge, who last year succumbed to pancreatic cancer, was a chemical engineer for Texaco oil company, and Dodge is in line to receive a significant inheritance."
Snowe has voted with Republicans 67 percent of the time in this Congress, according to The Washington Post.
Collins has the same percentage.
I think I want a better source to verify that claim before I buy it.
Nephew of Marshall Dodge perhaps?
I'm tired of casting a vote, then feeling like I need a three day shower.

LePage had his own "business" history, mayoral history and "life history" to draw from. Dodge felt neglected: Do You Know Who I Am? The Tea Party did endorse, true but LePage was not part of the TP as often now reported. Appreciated ALL voter support, however.
Me too.
Snowe and her collegues are in the wrong party.
But then when you look at the bloated obscenity called Barney Franks, you wonder HOW ON EARTH even a liberal Democrat could POSSIBLY cast a vote for this sputtering freak show?
There is a real estate boom in Washington and has been for the last 5 years at least. He will have no problem selling.
Specter lost his own primary to a very liberal Joe Sestak.
Then, Toomey defeated Sestak in the general. But not by much.
You are correct. Toomey barely beat a liberal’s liberal in an extremely fertile environment for the GOP in a state that flipped several House seats to the GOP. It shows that in statewide races the huge turnout machine the dems have in the urban areas come into play. Colorado and Nevada are two states we should have nabbed - throw in WA too - if not for the lib turnout machine. State races are tough.

Conservatives should dominate the Senate based on how many states vote against Democrats.
We may not have the waste pits of Urbanna, but we do control the majority of states. It is time we knock off the RINOs and commie Democrats. There is no excuse for theme to have more than 30 seats in the Senate.
Then, we punish those states with Democrat Senators and house members the way the Democrats and Obama have punished those with Republicans. It is time for payback.
There are also quite a few Passamaquoddy warriors who might want to show up on your doorstep, or perhaps take title to your property under the terms of their settlement.
Maine is made of small Northern European populations (Brits and Scots and Irish) without much ethnic or social diversity
Hold that thought. Somalis, Mexicans, Colombians, African Americans, we got'em all ... and we also have your theory. Point 2: Maine is underpopulated. Larger than the rest of New England put together, there are just around perhaps 1 Million people rattling around in the woods ... on a warm day. The polygamous Somalis are working on that, night and day, as they soak up the state's meager resources.
Maine is also dirt poor. In grammar school geography we always used to say, "Thank the Lord for Mississippi keepin' us off the bottom!"
You fellows do not understand Maine at all. If Susie were to leave the Senate, it would expose Oly to the harsh glare of sunlight and the cruel questions of her constituents.
Susie is our Down East answer to Barbara Boxer. Her job is to make the other Senator look real smart. Fellows, she is doing just a great job at that, too. Why screw around with success?
The real question everyone in the US should ask of lady Senators and Congress Creatures is, "What's your husband (son, brother, uncle, cousin) up to these days?"
Ayuh, you'd be amazed.
I would want her defeated in 2012 AT ALL COSTS! PERIOD!
Better to have an enemy that you can see and deal with, than one from within!
I want this B_TCH OUT! PERIOD!
