the republican party polls show just how stupid their leaders are! a net gain of a negative 23%! only once in the history of their party has it been worse!
make sure you spread this information at every coffee shop ,every water cooler and every where some (in hock up to ass small businessman who still thinks republican leaders give a shit about him dummy) idiot is spouting off about the ira or privatizing roads,schools jails and every other thing big business is trying to run!

We have only won one skirmish we held the presidency and senate. The Republicans will use every tactic in the book to control this country and the middle class. Voter suppression, redistricting and changing the distribution of electoral vote to name a few. The republicans have no real desire to win the heart of the people only control them. The democrats generally are a group that is not mean spirited and cares for their fellow man regardless of race, religion, age or social standing.The republicans see this as a weak point and will exploit it to the max. We are under attack from terrorists and like it or not we must battle both mentally and physically if necessary to survive. Lesson to Fox news and what the republican are saying and how they say it. Don't count on any caring or compassion let alone any true compromise. We will either win or loss and that depends on how much fight we are willing to put up.

when you get my age you have known this for at least 30 years- in my case it was in the 60's when I still believed long hair and shorts were for females! In fact a young athletic construction worker would be called a fagot by his peers if he had shoulder length hair or wore shorts anywhere but the beach(then they had to be cut-off levi's)!
so you see I have known this for close to 60 years! oh I still voted for some republicans ! there were a few of them left that realized if maine didn't let the new guy grow the state would not keep up with the rest of the world!Like I have said in the past I basically am independent but had to register to vote in the primaries! And I'm sure you realize I fought tooth and nail to throw that bunch out in nov. And I think once the voters realized how they were manipulated by outsider support like "alec" the real mainer stood up and voted! I n june we need to think outside the box! to get earnest people to run for office! I think DILL could run against any republican and win! She gained experience and many that voted for King will get behind her! few mainers will elect a party following tyrant who's plan is to keep big business from paying it's share while keeping the pay low and the benefits less until they are non-existent!
