To the Editor:

Watching and reading Angus King’s quest for the United States Senate is like viewing “Groundhog Day.”

The question is, “What have you done for me today and what can you do for me now?”

It is time to move on. The Last time Angus King was in the loop, gas was $1.15 per gallon, a new house $113,000, and wages were around $35,000 per year.

Oh, to have Yaz patrolling the outfield today, to see Hondo John Havlicek wearing the Celtic green, leading to another championship and best of all, the #4 in black and gold, Bobby Orr, scoring the winning goal for the Stanley Cup.

Just to recall Joe Gibbs from NASCAR to lead the Redskins to the Super Bowl. It will never happen again. Time to move on.

While in office as governor, Angus King instituted the BETR, known as “Business equipment tax reimbursement.”

It gave credits to those who did not need it. It cost the general fund $50 million to $60 million the taxpayer paid through higher taxes. University of Maine professor stated “BETR is a windfall to a handful of corporations and unfair to everyone else,” as quoted in the Times Record Sept. 19, 2012.

Maine has two candidates who now hold elected office. Both will be ready in January 2013, to serve our state.

Senator Cynthia Dill or Secretary of State Charles Summers know the system and problems we face as a nation. It will not be prudent to this nation or state to vote for a candidate with no political affiliation. Time to move on.
