I support Chellie Pingee for US Senate from Maine.

No one has officially declared for the senate seat being vacated by Olympia Snowe, but I'm coming right out and endorsing Chellie Pingee, although I'm sure Rep. Mike Michaud would also be a good candidate. It's a nice problem to have a deep, progressive bench from which to choose.

1. Agreed.

2. Hello From Maine,...

...I'm inclined towards Chellie also. I'd like to see Mike Michaud serve another 2 years and then send paul lepage, AKA Governor go to hell, packing!

It seems that we have a deeper bench than they do.

PEACE!

4. Just read that Michaud will stay in the House.

[MarianJack]

5. That Makes Sense.

I think he'd have more clout as a 7th termer in a likely majority than as a freshman Senator. As I said previously, I see him more as a potential Governor. He'd certainly be very strong against a very vulnerable paul "go to hell" lepage.

PEACE!

3. I hope she runs too

I saw her on Rachel last night. She sounds like she would be a strong candidate. I like when Rachel asked her would you be moderate or a progressive like you are now in congress and she said basically the voters voted for me to be the way I am so I am not changing anything!

6. run, Chellie, run

She has my vote, whatever she runs for!
