Collins would have been a favorite in the GOP primary and the general election in Maine in 2018, but that doesn’t mean she wouldn’t have had a battle on her hands. Her combative governor, Paul LePage (R-ME), suggested in August that Collins would be “highly unlikely to win a Republican primary.”
“Susan Collins Passes…”
Dang it, don’t do that to me! Had my hopes up.
I wonder who Bannon has in mind to replace her….
Looks like she fell out of the ugly tree and hit every branch on the way down…
who in the hell would want to be governor of Maine anyway. I was hoping we could get rid of her but we’ll have to find another way.
@Czar. First name in the phone book would likely be an improvement.
Collins says that Bannon’s talk of republican war isn’t helpful. I’m sure she thinks it is not helpful to her but I like the heck out of it.
She’ll stay in the Senate? That’s what she thinks.
She’s not up for reelection until 2020.
Sounds to me like the old hag knew she didn’t stand a chance in hell.
@PHenry; then start the campaign to force her into a primary now and by 2019 she’ll tearfully announce her retirement to work on her bucket list.
Don’t these old fvcken hags have grandchildren they want to spend time with instead of continuing to torment the American people??????
She speaks like they’re ripping a broom handle outtta her ass.
Her internal polling told her she’d have her arse handed to her in a Governor’s race.
She would actually have to work and accomplish something meaningful as governor!
She could always fall back on a career in modeling. I hear they’re recruiting at the Michelle Obama / Sarah Jessica Parker Modeling Agency.
You shoulda seen her BEFORE the ‘nose job…’
Din’t ya know? Them ugly trees are TALL in maine.
