The Party of Personal Reprehensibility 0
Lance Dutson takes a scathing look at what has happened to the Maine Republican Party. A snippet:
It’s one ridiculous story after another. The party of Margaret Chase Smith, Bill Cohen, Olympia Snowe, and Susan Collins has become the punchline of a very dark joke, one layered with incompetence, anger, and bigotry. The Maine GOP was once a national example of effective and reasonable leadership. Now it’s been invaded and infected by an outspoken legion of LePage cultists who won’t stop till they’ve bled every bit of credibility from the party’s nobler past.
And it’s not just in Maine, folks.
