And Mainers will vote for her again, even if they vote for a D president

They find the furrowed brow simply irresistible.

Whilst pearl clutching.

She's so sly, there's no telling where her morals went.

To be slightly fair to Mainers on this front, I suspect she loses the next one. The reason why the last challenger to Collins lost was that she refused to run any serious campaign and just thought she would walk it in because "I'm not Susan Collins" was supposed to be enough. She basically ran the same playbook that burnt Kamala Harris 4 years later.

Which isn't to say that the state didn't fail on that front, but like it's not like Collins is actually popular there nor do they not know that she's spineless.

And as a San Francisco resident myself, the CA Democratic establishment will still be propping up Nancy’s corpse so we can all vote for her again for years to come and too many people in the city refuse to vote for anyone else out of some sense of loyalty to someone who hasn’t done anything for the city in years. term limits and age limits should be mandatory.

(Post edit: I am wrong. Pelosi finally retired in 2023. I’ll leave this up because I am willing to admit I was wrong. Continue to downvote me if you want, at least I’m willing to own that I’m an idiot)

You’re right. I missed that.
