GOOD NEWS!

My wife was recalled to her job today after the Feds reopened. Our dear Governor LePage didn't have to lay her office off, but he did so in a worthless show of teabagger solidarity. We'll continue to remember this as we work for Mike Michaud to send his temper-tantruming ass back to Florida next year.

PEACE!

I can't imagine that stooge pulling off anywhere near the support he'd need.

...he's counting on Elliot Cuttler to pull enough support from Mike Michaud to allow him to sneak into office again. Yuck & Yikes!

PEACE!

Mike Michaud is a stronger candidate than Libby Mitchell was (although she is a GREAT woman!). Libby ran out of money about 2 weeks before the election and went into free fall from her inability to answer the shitload of negative attacks that came her way. She ran on our clean election laws while Cutler was able to buy a 2nd place finish and LePage got an avalanche of out of state teabagger money. I don't think that Mike Michaud will put himself in either position.

PEACE!
