Quote of the Day

"(The Democrats) questioned the validity of my signatures," he said. "They all have been vetted and validated by the Secretary of State. They're all registered voters. This is just one more effort to disenfranchise all the voters in Maine who would like to have a third choice in the race for U.S. Senate."
– Independent U.S. Senate candidate Herbert Huffman on the Maine Democratic Party’s appeal of a July 17 Kennebec Superior Court ruling in favor of validating petition signatures that support Huffman’s third party bid for the seat.

Disgrace
The McCain people pushed the people they supported on everyone. All thru the day I had people handing me the McCain delegate list. Delegates were not allowed to speak and people were voting blindly. In District 2 someone stood up and said this very same thing. It was ignored! Completely disgraceful. It's show a VERY CONTROLLED PARTY. Anyone who has not been prechoosen will NOT be heard. So much for land of the free. We are now Government by the Government for the Government. The people no longer have control of their servants!
God, People, Government.
Get it right!
