When did Maine politics go into the gutter? It's shameful, really. Susan Collins is one of the most decent and honest people I know. Now, I also know Troy Jackson, but we're not talking about buying a coat of wood here. We're sending someone to the US Senate, and Troy doesn't have the tools he needs to be effective. Both sides know that in times of trouble, they can turn to Susan because she delivers for Maine. We need Susan, America's most independent senator, working for all of us. I'm Susan Collins, and I've approved this message.
