How do you feel about last night's Gov primary? [View all]

I'm proud of all of our candidates regardless of where they finished.

Going from one through seven, My vote was Mills, D Dion, Cote, Eves, Sweet, M Dion, Russell. D Dion got my #2 vote because at the local Democratic meeting a few weeks ago, after I told her that I was supporting Janet Mills, she asked for my second place vote. I liked what she had to say and it amazes me how often that people in public life simply forget that simple step of asking people for their votes. I liked, she asked, she got.

As of this AM, it looks as though our nominee will be either Janet ot Adam. I'll be happy to support either. If Adam is not our nominee, than I believe that he'd be a very strong and attractive candidate to challenge the spine of oatmeal Susan Collins in 2020 when she seeks the 5th of the 2 terms she pledged to serve when she first ran.

Of course, Republican nominee Shawn Moody is about as sharp as a bag of sledge hammers.

There's my 2 cents, and quite possibly overpriced at that!

PEACE!
