Gotta love how all it took was a guy getting shot in his car to take the Maine race all the way from “100% going to win” to “100% going to lose” and then to “maybe Schumer’s homophobic, Bibi-approved replacement candidate can win.” Truly gripping politics
Jackson is not how you describe him. He is endorsed by DSA and Bernie as well. If Schumer and the DNC had it their way they’d have a rabid zionist up there libsplaining why the jewish identity trumps all civil rights of all arabs because the holocaust or some stupid shit, even though his version of Jewish identity is a racist caricature which just boils down to a jewish supremacist zionazi.
take the Maine race all the way from “100% going to win” to “100% going to lose”
It didn’t happen within six weeks of the election, so there’s a good chance all this news gets flushed down the memory hole by election day. Every election cycle we play this game. It’s six months of horrific headlines, a one-month lull, and then a sudden gusher of October Surprise Fascist Friendly media.
I do think that Dems in Maine are enjoying something like a 5-10 pt polling advantage, in no small part thanks to the aggressive GOTV and organizing the state’s progressive movement has embarked upon. So I don’t want to be a doomer and say this is Collins’s race to lose. It’s a Blue Year in what is shaping up to be a Blue State.
But people have been swinging and missing on Collins for over 20 years. She’s a snake and you can’t count her out until inauguration day.

How is this guy “Schumer’s pick”? He literally said he wouldn’t vote for Schumer as majority leader
