What principle? SMH


I thought that post about "principle" was a joke. I had no idea people were so clueless.

The principle that one is always innocent until proven guilty - remember that one?

I only wish I lived in Maine so I could vote for her.

That’s in the criminal justice system. Not necessarily for job interviews. Why is this so compliforcated for you people?


It's not complicated for me. It's the way I think we should approach any situation involving a person--whether rumors, interviews, school-related infractions of rules, possible crimes, etc. Won't be the same as a court of law, but give the benefit of the doubt. And definitely with a situation where the accuser can't provide key facts.


But the person's behavior during the job interview is immaterial to you, it seems. Somehow.

Who among us hasn’t ugly cried and shouted, “I LIKE BEER” to a sitting senator in a job interview and then implied the senator is also a drunk?


Yeah. I do that at every job interview and then I have mysterious people pay my financial debts for me, too.

Well, in fairness, you also bring your high school calendar to prove you had friends back then. That's endearing.

aw, so sad

https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/465899-poll-50-percent-of-maine-voters-disapprove-of-susan-collins-job-performance

Sen. Susan Collins’s (R-Maine) approval rating is deeply underwater about a year ahead of her reelection race, according to a new poll from the left-leaning firm Public Policy Polling.

Thirty-five percent of Maine voters polled approve of the job Collins is doing, while 50 percent disapprove. Collins trails a generic Democratic candidate 44 percent to 41 percent in the 2020 Maine Senate race, a drop from September, when she led a generic Democrat 44 percent to 38 percent.

Collins, who is one of two Republican senators running for reelection in states former Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton won in 2016, is facing one of the toughest reelection campaigns of her career. Her vote last year to confirm Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh as he faced sexual misconduct allegations infuriated liberals and sparked an intense effort to recruit candidates to challenge the longtime senator.


It's so weird cause I thought I remember the BK fangirls swearing up and down that Collins' support for Bart O'Beer ensured her popularity would just rise and rise and rise

Yeah I’m pretty sure they promised sunshine and rainbows for anyone who supported Bretty.

Kavanaugh opponents took finger wagging to an expert level. She was merely doing her job, and doing it with integrity.

I suspect that's how most people in Maine saw it.

Not the DC tourists, I mean the people actually living year round up there.

Nope.

All those down homeregular Mainers donating to 1820 PAC, a superPAC supporting Susan Collins.

The “Society for Young Women Scientists & Engineers LLC” has no website or google results and was only formed weeks ago. Sounds a lot like “Global Energy Producers, LLC” which got Lev and Igor indicted.

The governorship, both state houses, and both congressional seats are in Democratic hands. Angus King is a beloved Independent who caucuses with the Dems. Since Poliquin lost through RCV, we have a clear path to ousting a Collins, and Gideon is a string candidate. Collins is just trying to preserve post-Senate earning opportunities now.

Vote for President likely a good indicator of how the Maine Senate vote will go. Latest poll (Oct ‘19) shows Biden leading Trump in Maine by 12 points. Warren and Sanders lead Trump by 10 points.

Help send Collins into retirement. Maine can do better!

Last week the GOP demonstrated we're a banana republic. I'm hoping the Dems are able to save this country.

Gideon is a worthy successor to the tradition of Margaret Chase Smith.
