Drip by drip the stories come out about Graham Platner. Are we waiting for the pipe to burst and flood the hold before we come to our senses?

If we think all the negative stories are out there, just wait until the biggest guns of the Republican Party take aim on the oyster farmer. They’ll blow him out of the water.

Why wait for that to happen when there’s an alternative? The “long shot,” David Costello. We don’t have to wear jeans and appear scruffy to be for working people. Personally, I think experience in government is good for someone running for the U.S. Senate. And he will be a lot more seaworthy when the serious attack ads start coming. 

I want Susan Collins to be defeated. But I want someone in that seat I won’t be embarrassed by. And don’t long shots return the biggest payout if they win?
