Mainer here. I'm sick of pundits telling me how I should vote.

I live in a bright blue part of the state. I was a Janet Mills supporter. Then she dropped out and I turned to Platner. Now I'm told by the press, by my out-of-state Democratic friends, by all the genius politicos from outside Maine, that Maine Democrats are going to stay home and Collins is going to win.

Ya know what? No, we're not going to stay home. Every Democrat I know, men and women, whether they earlier supported Platner or not, is damn well going to show up to vote against Collins.

Stop telling us what we're going to do. We're Mainers. We do whatever we damn well please.

But I thought you could not  breathe without the rat party bosses telling you what to think and do

Apart from the Nazi tattoo, public masturbation, and having an active account on pedophile website, what's not to like?

1. "Pundits" tell people how to vote in every election. They're called campaign ads.

2. MSM "Pundits" tell R voters not to vote for R candidates in every election. :-)

That's (D)ifferent.

As the late great El Rushbo used to say, what would be a career-ending scandal for a Republican is actually a resume enhancer for a Democrat.

Yeppers, :hi5: .

When an R raises his/her right hand randomly during a speech, it's a Nazi salute. A Dem Senatorial candidate has a Nazi symbol tattoo ... "I! See! Nussing! Nussing!"

A gossip columnist claims Trump raped her in a year she cannot remember, with no substantiating police report or acquaintance? A female claims Trump raped her when she was 13, giving 4 substantially different stories? "Trump is a rapist!!!" LIEden swam nude with a female USSS agent protecting ... LIEden nuzzling young girls at public events ... LIEden showered with his young daughter ... "I! See! Nussing! Nussing!"

Waitress Sandwich ... "I! See! Nussing! Nussing!"

Abandoning a female campaign worker to drown or suffocate ... "I! See! Nussing! Nussing!"

I guess the Democratic Party's big tent is big enough for a NAZI (a real one, not the phantasmagoric ones from Democrats' fever dreams).

It would sound - and be - more impressive coming from a rural Texan (or a rural resident of most states).

The thing is, they're Democrats. They'll say they'll do what they want, but then they'll just do what party leadership tells them to do.

So, after calling everyone who thinks for themselves and refuses to bend knee its demonrat overlords a "nazi", this DUmbAss is now eager to vote for an actual nazi? That makes sense...since its a DUmbAss.

They’re going to counter our supposed nazism with a NAZI. That’ll show us.

The Maine primary is Tuesday next week. Not sure if it's contested on the D or on the R side.

True. I thought of Texas and Montana as two states that could make such statements.
