I am so frustrated with Rhinos I could scream. For the first time since 1962, the Republicans hold the Maine governorship, state house, and state senate. Today, five “Republicans” sided with the Rats and voted against a bill to require a photo id to vote in Maine elections.

With examples of voter fraud all over the country and an attempt by the Rats in Portland to allow non-citizens the RIGHT to vote in local or municipal elections this happens.

NH legislature just passed a law requiring photo id to vote.

However, my guess is that the commie-RAT governor, the one who swore he would not raise taxes, who swore he would not sign a “gay marriage” bill, and broke both promises, THAT commie-RAT governor, will veto the bill.

RINOs
Damn RINOs

Conservatism will never triumph as long as the Republican establishment continues to follow the call of the RINOs.

Gotta keep Maine that deep blue color. Voter fraud is important up there. Still got to show an I.D. to rent a video though.

Not surprising at all when you think of who their Senators are.
Snowe and Collins.

Two of the Biggest Democrats in the Republican party.

The Rhinos bought into the idea that voter fraud is virtually nonexistent in Maine. Perhaps up to now.
However, the Rats are out of power and want to take back both houses of the legislature next year and the governorship in 3 years. They will do whatever it takes to win. And the Rhinos-well they will just play nice.

If the Republicans lose next year due to voter fraud, it will be due to the “Fabulous Five Rhinos”.

Found them

None of the Republicans who voted against the bill — Sens. Roger Katz, Brian Langley, Christopher Rector, Richard Rosen and David Trahan — spoke on the Senate floor, but several Democrats spoke in opposition before the 15-19 vote.

When any government body objects to photo ID for voters they believe in corruption to win elections. There is no other excuse, Republican or Democrat.

Must be something in the clear water!

Elected Collins and Snowe, pure RINO’s - and now can’t even get voter documentation through their system, with
rino’s voting for no doc’s.

Must be something up there in the water!
