Opens up some interesting scenarios. Severely erodes support for Collins, certainly. But perhaps LePage (yes, THAT Lepage!) may be tempted to abandon his run for the ME-2 congressional seat and instead run against Collins in the Puke Senate primary? Recruited by Donnie no less and stupid enough to actually do it. He is a magat favorite. That gives either Wood or Dunlap, Dem candidates since Golden is stepping down, a much easier time in ME-2. So, in a moment of shortsighted stupidity, Trump may have flipped the entire ME delegation blue.
