There’s a bitter and destructive battle going on in Maine, but not between voters.
It’s between party candidates – and it doesn’t end when they’re elected.
It’s like having bank tellers so busy fighting between themselves that they forget to deposit your paycheck.
Can you think of one thing Augusta has accomplished in the last decade to significantly improve Maine’s prospects for a better future?
I can’t.
I think Eliot Cutler can do better.
He focuses not on the narrow issues that divide us, but on the big areas where most of us agree – like making Maine a more prosperous state now and for the next generation.
On our own, we may not be able to bring a working government to Washington, but we have no one else to blame if we can’t do it here.
It’s time to stop fighting and start working.
