the phrase "lipstick on a pig" has always inspired a deep sadness in me. I think of the pig, looking forward to her big night out, and I bring myself to the verge of tears.
Now that Platner has won the primary, I want to be clear. When I said “vote blue no matter who” in 2016, 2020, and 2024, I meant it. I’m worried about Platner, but if you say “vote blue no matter who” in Maine, I hope you’ll extend the same courtesy to other Dems.
I hope we beat Collins.
