Susan Collins lets loose with her career on the line

[brooklynite]

Politico

Susan Collins generally keeps an even keel. But she’s had it with Sara Gideon.

“She will say or do anything to try to win,” Collins said when asked of her opponent during a wide-ranging 30-minute interview in her Capitol quarters last week. “This race is built on a foundation of falsehoods. And trying to convince the people of Maine that somehow I am no longer the same person.”

Collins wasn’t done as she accused Gideon of “defaming my reputation and attacking my integrity” in their increasingly nasty race. For good measure, the Maine Republican added that Gideon’s campaign was being run as an arm of Chuck Schumer’s Washington operation, scolded Gideon, the statehouse speaker, for not reconvening the legislature amid the pandemic and challenged Gideon’s handling of a sexual misconduct scandal.

Perhaps most pointedly, she suggested that Gideon is from away — a serious charge in a state that can turn its nose up at outsiders.

She seems "concerned" about something...

She should be. She’s about to lose.

12. 'from away' is fighting words.

went to maine once. took a whale cruise. the capt, a naturalist, had been there for 25 yrs, was married to a mainer, and said there were still ppl who whispered behind his back that he was 'from away'.
but then, how much time does ole suzie spend there any more?

14. Maybe she should

write someone a strongly worded letter?

[RAB910]

15. "defaming my reputation and attacking my integrity"

Did I miss something? When did Susan acquire those things?

[greenjar_01]

16. Was this written by a Politico journalist or by the Committee to Re-Elect Susan Collins?

[yellowcanine]

17. "Attacking my integrity". Come again Susan. Integrity?

[gibraltar72]

20. "I am deeply concerned".............says Stuart G.

[ananda]

22. So what?

Whatever Gideon says about Collins, I'm sure
it's much worse in reality.

Collins is toast!!!

[blogslut]

23. Her pragmatic, magnanimous reputation is just veneer that conceals rotting, splintered wood

[Wounded Bear]

24. Apparently, Ms Gideon has been talking about Ms Collins' record again...
