WASHINGTON — A liberal group has launched a seven-figure ad campaign to encourage Republicans to vote against the Senate's tax bill.

First up: Sen. Susan Collins of Maine, who has said that she has deep concerns about the Senate version of the bill, which would slash the corporate tax rate, make temporary changes to individual tax rates, eliminate a series of deductions for individuals and businesses, and end the Obamacare mandate that imposes a fine on people who don't buy health insurance.

The group, Not One Penny, began airing its first ad in Maine on Saturday.

The group, which plans to run similar spots in a set of states it hasn't yet identified, has committed to fighting any legislation that cuts taxes for the wealthiest Americans. Both the House-passed version of the tax bill and a Senate companion approved by the Finance Committee would do so.

What alternate universe do some people live in, even those who appear to be gifted with a modicum of brain matter?

2. Until she makes a conscious decision to switch to Independent

like her junior cohort Angus King, she will ALWAYS use hedging terms. Of course Angus caucuses with Democrats but she is apparently not quite ready to burn her GOP bridges just yet. She still comes from a state that elected ilk like LePage. It really is time to cut them loose however.
