Dear Olympia Snowe and Susan Collins...take a look around and behold your party |
|
Is this you? Is this really what you support? Is this what Maine wants?
Please...do the right thing. Declare yourselves as independents, and come caucus with us. Leave the insanity behind.

2. The Republican Party is destroying itself. Snowe and Collins would be wise to bail now. nt |

They have both been out campaigning for teabag lunatic Paul LePage.
They are not, never have been "moderates". They are mere opportunists. When it took being a moderate to get elected, they were moderates, now that you have to be a raving wingnut, they will move to the right.

I am just so tired of people always hoping that Collins and Snowe are right on the verge of leaving the republican party. Those two are despicable opportunists.

6. If I were a despicable opportunist, I would be worried about being primaried in the next cycle |
|
That's why I suggested they become independents.

7. Do we really want them? |
|
I'd rather see them lose to a real dem. All we get with them is more Leiberman's and Nelson's. We need to move to the left not the center right, enough of them.

12. I'd like to at least see them become "whistleblowers" and expose.... |
|
...the real forces behind and reasons for Republican strategies.
