(1,733 posts)and it sure looks like the majority of Mainers *DO*, in fact, share my views on this -- by a huge margin: 58-24%

But that does not mean we should not ask questions about both candidates. I don't want another octogenarian in the Senate making it ever more difficult to appeal to the following 3 generations who have a much greater stake in the decisions we make as a nation. Mills and I will not be around that much longer. I want to see the younger people get a chance before it is too late. My generation has already fed up by being way too passive and compliant in the face of 50 years of growing fascism.
Likewise, none of us wants to see another Fetterman. That turned out to be a big mistake. So we ask questions and hope we will get enough truth to elect people who really will make the difference we need.
