PPH All Alone

Bangor Daily News--thoroughly in the tank for Sen. Collins--yesterday ran an op-Ed making the basic case against the junior senator.

It's a pretty simple argument, though it's striking how rarely Maine media outlets allow it to be made. Which is why BDN deserves something like credit for letting it be heard just four days before the election.

When's the last time PPH has ran a left-leaning column about the Allen-Collins race?

And why on earth would a nominally center-left publication--serving a progressive, left-of-center readership--shut that kind of commentary out of its paper?

No, it's not an oversight.
