Paul likes his Maine prospects
Republicans caucus this weekend, and unenrolled voters can play an important role.

AUGUSTA — With highly motivated supporters and a natural appeal to a mass of like-minded independents, Ron Paul has promising prospects in this weekend's Maine Republican caucuses, party officials and other observers say.

Maine's GOP polling today, Saturday and Sunday may give the Texas congressman his best shot at winning a state, which would be big, coming just days before Tuesday's presidential preference contests in more than 20 states.

It doesn't hurt that Paul's visit this week made him the only presidential candidate from either party to visit Maine before the caucuses.

"I think that (because) he's paid attention to Maine, he'll be rewarded," said R. Kenneth Lindell, Paul's campaign coordinator in Maine.
