The Maine Millennial: Kavanaugh leaves me nervous but not worried
See, I’m from Maine, which means I have a grumpy conservative streak a mile wide.
Letter to the editor: Joyce McCreight’s character stands out
I have found that I can get a very clear picture of someone’s character, ethics and strengths by simply looking at her or his volunteer causes and work career. This is true for Joyce “Jay” McCreight, Democratic state representative in House District 51. Recognizing the demands created by Maine’s ever-increasing senior population, Jay was one […]

Over 2.7 million Americans served in Vietnam; about a third of us are still alive. For us, coming home was anything but a homecoming. Vietnam vets feel America […]
