Hello, it wasn’t just a vote, it was a lengthy speech that put paid to the bullsh8. How soon we forget.

Why is it always assumed, if true, that it is because she voted more conservative? Maybe it’s because she’s a wish-washy moderate and Republicans want a fighter like Pres Trump.

Mainers had no problems voting for Paul LePage.

Well, that might be the thing with Murkowski. She is simply not dependeble and every time a serious issue comes up, like Kavanaugh, she is one senator that has to be dealt with behind the scene. One never can be sure that she will support the Rep position, hence her name, along with Romney and others, are in the headlines as being iffy about supporting Trump related legislation. It seems these self serving Rep senators have to be bribed or some such method used to get their support. It has really gotten so obvious that I wonder why the Rep party continues to accommodate any of them.

Electing a Democrat = electing Collins. The main difference is that we can be more sure of where the Democrat will stand on the issues that matter.

She needs to be challenged in the Primary.

"... Portland MAINE paper of record."

Dang! Old age sure plays tricks... Thanks for the correction... {:-)

Although I was only about 3000-miles off, I'd blame Waze, but I wasn't in my car driving...

So, I guess Collins may, in fact, be in trouble... She may be a RINO POS, but we cannot afford to lose any Senate seats... IMHO, control of the Senate is more important than some of the problem issues we have with the POS RINOs...

Both McConnell and Collins can get easily re-elected IF they jump fully aboard the Trump train.

#9. Collins is too arrogant and stupid “to embrace the Trump movement”. Hope someone from the GOP will challenge her in primary and then wage a devastating campaign against any Demorat opponent. Time to take Maine back into a loyal USA.
