Senator Collins is not the worst one, but I find her particularly repulsive just

the same. . . I think what bothers me most is that she is mistakenly seen as a 'moderate' when she is no such thing. I am disgusted when I hear about how "concerned" she is about Pussy-Grabber's language. She is a fucking liar who is wiling to prostitute her principles for power. But she's a repig, so what should we expect?

She tries to position herself as a "key moderate Republican" and a "swing vote" on important issues. She hems and haws a little, expresses her concern, clutches her pearls... and in the end does whatever McConnell tells her to do. At least with most of the others you know what you're getting.

Hopefully Mainers will remove her, we need senators who work for us not against us.

Here in CO we will do our part by removing Cory the Coward.

But as repelling as I find Cory, I find Lisa Murkowski and Susan Collins even worse, because I am certain they know better and just don't give 2 shits.
