45. What I'm saying is...

It’s for the voters in Maine to decide. Any time I spend on it is a waste, as far as my personal life is concerned. I have other things to concern my life with besides what is likely a smear campaign in another state. You can get all worked up about it you want, but in the end it makes no difference whatsoever to the outcome of this Senste race.

Susan Collins was always going get the billionaires to step in with mountains of cash to influence the race. This latest ‘revelation’ is probably a direct result of Susan having unlimited funds to smear her opponent when she has nothing to run on herself.
