Paul LePage has always been among the most wicked Republicans. His racist rhetoric should come as no surprise. This has already occurred on multiple occasions before. I would have a lot of trouble voting for him if I had to, which says a lot given his awesome persona. Quite a shame the good folks of Maine couldn't just get behind Cutler last time, but we can't fix the past. Hopefully this sad joke's gone for good from his dangerous policymaking, soon only to have a voice on whatever Trump News Network is created.
2018 can't come soon enough - hopefully Cutler gives it one last go. The people deserve him.
Elliot Cutler declined to run in 2018.
