RE: Susan Collins ‘Sad’ That Support For Brett Kavanaugh Has Cost Her Votes

Question: Did anybody investigate the votes SHE GAINED as a result of her stand?

I’m no fan of Collins, but I sure hope she’s not primaried. It would weaken her and we need the seat in the Senate.

If she had voiced her support firm and early, probably wouldn’t be an issue. She put herself under the media pressure by waffling.

Gray Beaver should take note.

I would hope that Senator Collins has been saddened by the damage done to Mrs. Kavanaugh and her daughters.

In the summer of 1692, 20* innocent people were put to death in Salem, Massachusetts for proceedings quite comparable to the Kavanaugh hearings.

Any who voted as Collins did ought to be proud of themselves for doing the right thing, in spite of any backlash from idiot constituents.

* 19 after a kangaroo court trial, one as a result of torture for refusing to submit a plea.

She slimed a good man. Kavanaugh shows you how the deep state and their media will totally fabricate a story to destroy someone’s reputation, and that everyone else will jump on board. The only thing that saved Kavanaugh was longtime colleague was Lindsay Graham, who knew the allegations were all BS. If Graham hadn’t supported Kavanaugh he would have eventually been sacrificed for expediency, and his legal career and personal reputation would have been ruined forever, all for a pack of lies that were made up out of whole cloth.

It’s a frightening country we live in.

Every vote you ever cast as an elected representative costs you some votes with somebody.

If you can’t stand the heat, get out of the kitchen.

A rather prominent Democrat said that.

How many votes would she have lost voting against Kavanaugh?

Susie, that’s NOT why you are losing some votes.

Liberals NEVER get the right message. They always come up with some cocamamy reason that has no factual basis.

Your votes on so many other bills that President Trump needed are the correct reason for losing votes.

WISE UP!!!

Technically no one yet as no one can start collecting sits to get on the ballot until January 1, 2020. Susan Collins has not actually declared that she is running.

According to the Green Pages:

Republican: Derek Allen Levasseur
• FEC S0ME00095; 30 Jun 19; Tot $6,930; Dsb $9,356

Obviously he is not going to go far. I am involved in Maine Republican politics and I have never heard of him.

One would rationally think she would have lost more votes if she did not support Kavanaugh?
