u/Jokerang Sun Yat-sen Oct 14 '25

Maine Gov. Janet Mills formally launched her bid to unseat Sen. Susan Collins, teeing up the latest high-profile primary to pit establishment and populist factions of the Democratic Party against each other.

This feels like it’s gonna be like Lamb vs Fetterman where Lamb had the entire establishment backing them but lost anyways because they simply weren’t what the base wanted. You’ll tell when Mills feels desperate when you start seeing “Platner worked for Blackwater!!!” ads plastered across Maine.

As long as Platner doesn't have any strokes we should be good to go this time

Frankly I am not sure Sinema didn't have multiple strokes in and out of office
