I've been lurking for years from my computer at work but have only recently gotten a computer at home. One of the first things I did after getting online was register at Free Republic. I'm from the State of Maine and would like to apologize for Senators Snowe and Collins, as well as Congressmen Baldacci and Allen. Baldacci will soon most likely be only Maine's problem as he will probably be elected our next governor, but his replacement is either going to be another Democrat or a RINO named Kevin Raye, who worked with Olympia Snowe, so you know how that's likely to work. I look forward to making new acquaintances!
