Not a surprise. She is as phony as a $3 bill, as are the games that "Republicans" play. Please, anyone who can, donate to or volunteer time or otherwise support Sara Gideon to defeat Collins. Ms. Gideon is a fantastic candidate.

once Mitch knew he had Murkowski and Alexander locked up, he didn't need Romney or Collins.
And it didn't matter one iota that neither of those 2 came out early, Mitch already knew he had the votes.
