The Maine Twins being pushed to the right? That would be a welcome change.
If they did, it would be phony and temporary. They should stay true to themselves, and we will either vote them out in the primary or they will survive. Why is it assumed that people should pretend to be something they are not in order to retain power? Why would we be satisfied by a few pretend votes by them in 2011, when we know they will go back to being who they are as soon as they think we aren’t paying attention?
