Most of us expected LePage to lose. But he ended up winning the highest % since Angus King in 1998. On top of that, Bruce Poliquin won the second district, which the GOP couldn't even pick up in its Maine sweep in 2010. So I am asking if Maine is trending at all to the GOP. Could the second CD possibly be won by a Republican in a coming presidential election?

So combine with elasticity and national environment, a Republican could win at least part of it? I think we can come to an agreement here that Maine isn't really a blue state. It is an Independent state. If another Perot-caliber figure came around, I think they might actually win this state in general. Can we agree to that sentiment?
