THEY STILL DON'T GET IT

[luckyleftyme2]

To kill yhe spin: Ithink one of the main reason the republicans accross the country and especially in maine lost was because of arrogance.
It was simple to see the game plan,have many candidates for governor,split the vote!
Old but proven tatic.(sometimes)
RUN TABOR AS A CONSERVATIVE REPUBLICAN IDEA!complain about citizen groups going against(donating money). Do not let the public know you are hammering pro votes for free on two television and radio shows in the state for free every day!
tweak the tabor bill to 2/3 majority to make sure your puppets can keep it from the people to change a vote. Then lie about it,by saying people can overide it with a vote. Neglecting to say but first you need a 2/3 vote by the elected board.otherwise the people have no say.
How it unraveled: Maine people are naturally curious.they used their computers,listened to
the spin,asked questions and soon realized there was a snake in the wood-pile!
the 2/3 vote was the killer.the comerical with the gov. of colorado was the frosting on the cake.SOUND BYTES KILLED IT FOREVER! CREDIBILITY WAS LOST! AND IT WAS DEFEATED;AS IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN!
WOODCOCK LOST AT LEAST 10% OF HIS VOTE BECAUSE HE FAVORED IT.
YES ARROGANCE COST THE REPUBLICANS,AND IT STILL IS PRESENT AND HURTING THEM MORE.
REMEMBER DURING THE SPIN,BALDACCI GOT 39% OF THE VOTE,WOODCOCK 28%,MERRIL 22% LAMARCHE10% AND
PIER 1%
SO BY ANY VIEW OR MATH BALDACCI HAS A CLEAR MANDATE FROM THE ELECTORATE,AND TABOR IF IT COMES BACK IS SIMPLY A MEANS TO MAKE MONEY FOR A FEW!
YES THE STATE HAS A MONEY PROBLEM,MUCH OF IT BECAUSE OF THE DRUNKEN SAILOR SPENDING OF THE NOT CONSERVATIVE REPUBLICAN PARTY OF THE PAST-NOW LET THE HEARINGS BEGIN.
A TRUE CONSERVATIVE WOULD WANT THIS PARTY EXPOSED FOR THE WANTON SPENDING AND PORK BARRELING THEY HAVE DONE;THE REASON ALL OF THEM WAS NOT UP FOR ELECTION.
A TRUE AMERICAN CONSERVATIVE WOULD HAVE BEEN CLAMORING DAILY FOR FISCAL RESONSLBLITY.
NOW THATS A TRUE CRUSADE!
