To the Editor:

The next gubernatorial election is two years away, and it’s way too early to speculate who the Democratic nominee will be.

But we do know that Maine can’t afford another failed chief executive, and it can’t afford any further retrenching into the unworkable conservative policies we’ve had to live with for the last two years. Instead, we will work for better ideas that result in policies that will benefit Mainers, ideas that Paul LePage and Eliot Cutler, assuming they run in 2014, can’t provide.

We’ve had enough of the bombast, bullying and belligerence coming out of our governor’s office. It’s time for a chief executive who will offer a plan to strengthen our economy and grow our middle class.
