Interview with Sen. Snowe on Stimulus Package
"Senator Olympia Snowe, who's vote secured passage of the much debated $787 billion economic stimulus package, sat down with News 13 Monday for a rare one on one interview.

Senator Snowe, along with Maine's junior Senator Susan Collins and Pennsylvania Senator Arlen Specter, broke ranks with the republican party and voted for the Economic Recovery Act, just barely giving the bill the votes needed to pass.

In our interview, Senator Snowe talks about her vote and the attention she's received nationwide, as well as her private meeting with President Barack Obama and her phone calls with Vice President Joe Biden."

It's a little long, but interesting.

1. I like Olympia Snowe, even if I don't always agree with her
I wish she would become an Independent.

I was petrified McCain was going to choose someone like her, or even Susie Collis, as his running mate.
