GOP nominee for Gov of ME refuses to apologize for Obama "go to hell" comment
"As your governor, you're going to be seeing a lot of me on the front page, saying 'Governor LePage tells Obama to go to hell,'" LePage said to applause.

LePage, who is mayor of Waterville but new to statewide politics, declined to offer an outright apology. He also continued to take aim at the Obama administration, saying federal spending is driving up the national debt and "taking us to a place where my children and my grandchildren will never come back."

LePage, a favorite of tea partiers, told The Associated Press on Wednesday that he regretted the words he chose Sunday in the small coastal town of Brooksville but that he wasn't backing down in his criticism of the administration for what he describes as free-spending, antibusiness policies.

1. Not that this twerp is going to win
but if he were Governor of ME I would look forward to the Go To Hell the next time a disaster occurs and he decides to take care of it himself instead of begging for those Federal dollars.

This dipshits are so stupid it's unbelievable.

3. Pretty dumb for someone who just lost his lead

Thank goodness Libby is going to win. If this jerk got elected, a Maine boycott would be appropriate.
