Wedding bells will soon be ringing for Sen. Susan Collins.
The Maine Republican is engaged to Thomas Daffron, 73, the chief operating officer for the D.C.-based Jefferson Consulting Group.
According to the consulting group’s website, Daffron served as chief of staff to former Sens. Fred Thompson (R-Tenn.) and William Cohen (R-Maine). He was also a speechwriter for the late Sen. Charles Percy (R-Ill.), a campaign manager for former GOP presidential candidate Elizabeth Dole, and a consultant during all three of Collins’ Senate campaigns.
Collins, 59, has never been married.

Well at least she can’t reproduce.
How old are you people? 12?
What on earth do looks have to do with anything?
Grow up !

Apparently with him....nothing...nor does he mind someone who talks like they have a mouthful of Maine Blueberries
Also...I have no intentions of ever growing up...growing old yes...growing up...no.
Nuff said!!!
Senator Collins seems like a very decent person. Maine and the rest of the United States are lucky she is in the senate, because the alternative is a liberal democRAT. Here is wishing the best for Senator Collins and her new husband.
“How old are you people? 12?”
...no. I just have an incredible distaste for beat old bag Rino’s, so I don’t care if she’s a SI model. If this Mainiac had a lick of common sense and/or patriotism I wouldn’t feel the urge to act like a 12 year old.
Maybe he was dating Helen Thomas and this is an upgrade?
She’ll probably have Madonna sing Like a Virgin at the wedding
Surely thou jest! There is nothing conservative about Collins.
What’s Daffron look like?
Congratulations and Happy Valentine’s Day to the happy couple.
You're a moron.
The two Maine Democrat congressmen have ACU ratings of 14% and 0% Collins is around 51% lifetime average but 64% for 2010.
We give the Maine twins a lot of crap on this site for being RINOs (some of it well-deserved), but the bottom line is that they both voted for Alito and Roberts for The Court. If anyone out there can name a Democrat from Maine that would do the same, please let us know.
I sometimes get the impression that the majority on this site would prefer to be in the permanent minority. Kind of like my team came in last, but they did with style.
Sorry to disappoint - but you're wrong.
There's enough to be upset with both of them, but no need to cast aspersions with no cause.
Congratulations Ms Collins ... I hope many years of happiness.
Sticks and stones and all that Newzjunk.
51% and 64% spells big time RINO. How bout a sample of RINO Collins conservative record:
Voted to confirm both Sotomayer and Kagen.
Voted against Partial Birth Abortion Ban Act
Voted for Obamas American Recovery and Reinvestment Act.
Voted for Obamas 1.1 trillion stimulus in 2009.
Voted for CHIP
Voted for repeal of Don't Ask Don't Tell.
Voted for Cash for Clunkers.
Co-sponsored Gay and Lesbian Non-discirmiation in the Workplace act.
Co-sponsosred same-sex Domestic Partners Health Care Benefits Act.
Have a nice day.
She’s 59 and she’s getting married for the first time?
I guess there’s hope for me yet! (I’m 35).
