The real criminals were the police and the politicians playing off the gangs on one another and buying votes.

Maines governor elect, John Elias Baldacci, built his entire campaign on lies deceit and criminal behavior, yet the Republican party stood by and ran the lamest dumbest ads I have ever seen, instead of going after baldacci and his lies, using his roll call votes.

As a kid, my dad use to tell me that Maine was like this, "When the rest of the country is getting the 1965 Chevy's, we are unveiling the 1938 Chevy" He was righter than I thought, especially when it comes to honesty in government.

Do the state of Maine's people a favor, for the next four years, boycott Maine and everything from Maine.

Saw the trailer this weekend - it looks like a *great* film. Just remember - these were the "good old days" of the 19th century, for which we are all supposed to be nostalgic...
