LePage (R) very unpopular, would still win 3-ways (but not 2-ways) Post by: Maxwell on January 22, 2013, 12:34:30 PM A weaker Democrat would continue to lose support, and thus Cutler could come out stronger and possibly win. Until the very end, Cutler was barely in the double digits, so he can turn this around again.
However, if he doesn't run, I'd like a return of Governor Baldacci. Title: Re: ME-PPP: Gov. LePage (R) very unpopular, would still win 3-ways (but not 2-ways) Post by: Holmes on January 22, 2013, 03:50:56 PM Not Baldacci again, jfc. Maine consistently has the most boring governors in the country.

Maine consistently has the most boring governors in the country. Speaking as a Sandlapper, let me say that it would nice to have a boring governor for a change. Title: Re: ME-PPP: Gov.

We need some Republicans to win statewide in New England!

As a Democrat, I really don't care if it's Michaud, Baldacci, or Cutler, but only 1 needs to run so that the votes aren't split and so that the Christie ripoff doesn't get re-elected.
Title: Re: ME-PPP: Gov. LePage (R) very unpopular, would still win 3-ways (but not 2-ways) Post by: publicunofficial on March 10, 2013, 10:29:18 PM I agree that settling for an Independent is better than giving LePage a new term because the Dem and Ind split the Anti-LePage vote.

Anyway, anyone would be an improvement over LePage at this stage, but I'm hoping for Cutler. Title: Re: ME-PPP: Gov.

I find it a little awesome this race is clearly Leans R.
