10. If she continues to be a thorn in the side of the rest of the Republicans, then I support her

She honestly hasn't been all that bad all these years. She has voted with the Dems when it matters the most because she has, up to this point, listened to her constituents. I think if she is still listening now, she'd vote no, because it is obvious that is what most Mainers want. If she no longer cares what Mainers want and she's all about her party, she'd vote yes. I think she should be rewarded for representing Mainers in the face of incredible pressure from her party, that is if she votes no and continues to vote the way the majority of Mainers want her to going forward. I also think she'd probably be better off running as an independent the next time too.
