PPH: Collins On Bush's Side 77% of Time

The Portland Press Herald is one of the "news" organizations most responsible for advancing the myth that, facts be damned, Sen. Collins is a bipartisan moderate centrist who loves to reach across the aisle.

And yet, even this Collins-friendly paper is now admitting the truth: That the junior senator has voted with President Bush 77% of the time.

Getting a newspaper to concede a demonstrable truth shouldn't exactly be a big deal. But given PPH's water carrying for Collins, it's actually pretty remarkable.

Will BDN be next?
