Yup. The contrast between the parties could not be any starker.

Now Mainers get to decide how much they really do hate that stone-faced hypocrite, Collins.

Just do the right thing, Maine. You have nothing to lose but your chains.

*** GOP Insiders: Graham Platner's Exit is Bad News for AIPAC Dinosaur Susan Collins (R) ***

"The stuff we already knew about Graham Platner (D) was going to propel good-for-nothing Susan Collins (R) to overcome the Trumpf anchor. Now it's going to be a Democrat with a cleaner record, presumably."

"Candidate Jordan Wood supports US Senator Bernie Sanders' (I-VT) resolution to restrict offensive weapons sales to Israel but backs the continuation of aid to the Pariah state with certain conditions.

Wood said he believes Israel has committed war crimes in Gaza, but stopped short of accusing the Rogue state of genocide, something in 2024 the UN and academics the world over have clearly confirmed."

If US Senator Chuck Schumer (D-Israel) endorses Jordan Wood, then we'll know what Mainers will be getting.

He was the rank and file Democrat voter's choice, but coastal elites and money lenders make the rules.
