Sen. Collins v. MoveOn.org

We have a story in today's paper about a controversial video that Sen. Susan Collins is using to raise money for her campaign. The web link was accidentally left off the story, so if you want to watch the video click here.

Where is the story re. Rep. Allen and Sen. Lautenberg's citation of Sen. Collins in her earlier refusal to investigate Halliburton's Iraq war profiteering? I read it in PolitickerME.com today, but Allen and Lautenberg held a press conference on Feb. 21st, and I never saw a thing in the Prtld. Press Herald. What gives?
Personally, I can't wait to vote for Tom Allen. If this is what 'moderate' Republicans brought us for the last 8 years, confirming Alito & Roberts, voting for an erroneous war, tax cuts for the wealthy, turning a blind eye - or a wink & a nod - to Cheney, then out with them!
