Would her endorsing Johnson impact how ME-2 voted? Keep in mind that she's one of the last Rockefeller Republicans, problem is that while Weld might be one, Johnson is hard economically right while being hard socially left, causing problems for both conservative and moderate wings of the party in different ways.

Any chance she endorses Madame Clinton?

In this interview this morning, on Face The Nation, she said "No."

It's too bad that the libertarian ticket isn't flipped. I'd have no trouble voting for Weld, but I just can't take Gary Johnson seriously

Susan Collins said that exact same thing last week. Said she'd vote for Weld, praised Johnson but apparently his drug stance is just too much for her. This is what annoys me about all of the Republican politicians who are backing Johnson-they want him to be a moderate Republican, not a moderate Libertarian.

With Weld's flip-flopping on guns; I'd glad Johnson is the one on the top of the ticket.
