DEMOCRATS SWEEP THE FLOOR WITH THE REPUKES IN MAINE & TAKE BACK STATE LEGISLATURE BIGTIME !!

FINAL tallies are in. We CRUSHED the GRUMPY OLD PUKES here in Maine. It has taken a little time for all returns to finally come in, but now it shows that not only did we sweep nationally and on gay marriage, we VERY IMPORTANTLY CRUSHED the GOP at the state level and took back the state legislature after the anomoly of 2010 with very large margins. Now we will place a serious check and balance on the TeaPuke crazy governor and return Maine to some sense of reason and moderation. HOW SWEET IT IS !

I've heard so little of local results, I didn't even imagine state and local elections were on the ballot. NY never blends them.

Election was perfect. We even turned down our corrupt town council in their attempt to have us buy a sewer for Walmart, Home Depot, etc. for a kick back. People are waking up.
