Don't miss this juicy anecdote in today's Washington Post (via Turn Maine Blue) about the disconnect between Maine's senators.
Sen. Collins was apparently none too happy about having to stand alone in opposition to reinstalling the right of habeas corpus.
Snowe apparently did not inform her leadership of the switch, according to aides and senators familiar with the decision. Therefore, Collins never got the message, leaving her all alone.So: Is this how she decides how to vote?
Collins, who is facing a potentially tough reelection battle next fall against Rep. Tom Allen (D-Maine), an antiwar liberal [sic], was visibly angry, according to eyewitnesses in the chamber's press gallery. She paced around the floor, confronting several members of the leadership.
I mean, we're talking about a core modern legal principle for crying out loud, and Sen. Collins is worried about blending in with the crowd?

Suzie-Q hates America, our Constitution, and the fact that we have rights in this country. She's a typical jackboot licker of the fascist Pigs! Awwwww, how nice.
And yes...as a mature adult, she bases her votes, not on research, but on whether or not Olympia is going to vote along with her. Grow up Suzie-Q!
Gawd I despise that woman.
