With Senators like Collins, it’d be like there is no GOP majority.

This is so wrong. With Collins' seat contributing to a GOP majority we chair committees, set the Senate agenda and put more judges on the courts, including the SC in the next term.

Don't throw the baby out with the bathwater.

Did I say anything about voting her out?

We’ve already seen what a RINO majority in the House did to slow down Trump’s agenda. Remember that.

Well said.

As this is a strong conservative site, many here often criticize various Republicans as being too liberal for their taste. I can appreciate that, however......

When we face a binary choice in a general election, what are they going to do? If Mainers don’t vote for Susan Collins, the alternative will be liberal Democrat Sara Gideon.

Another point, is that as participants in a strong conservative site, we collectively are much more conservative than the general electorate, and moreso than even most Republicans. But there aren’t enough of us to win elections on our own.
