Repeat after me: "Republicans have always been for bond debt."

Maine GOP Senators resisting higher taxes and spending

The Resistance begins.

Mason, in a statement, said, “Senate Republicans’ priorities this session are the same as those we campaigned on in 2014: ensuring Maine’s hardworking families are paying less in taxes and energy costs, and no longer seeing their hard-earned money being wasted by a bloated government.”
He added, “We are supportive of lowering, and eventually eliminating, the income tax, but the best way to achieve that goal is to reduce the size of government and encourage the growth of business.”

LePage demands spending be hiked.

Some resistance to LePage's call for more IRS enforcers

Can the GOP rally to stop this LePage budget and get back to cutting spending?

LePage Evolution

LePage knows the rhetoric pretty well as seen in this interview.

One almost forgets he is proposing raising taxes long before allegedly lowering them sometime, years from now, and he proposed the biggest spending budget in state history.

It's not complex: LePage proposes raising taxes and record spending

Last month, the proposed LePage budget came in at a whopping $6.3 billion.  This month, according to this article, the budget comes in at an outrageous $6.57 billion!  No explanation is given as to how the numbers changed.

Poliquin votes against repealing Obamacare

Story here.

It was a symbolic vote, as the bill easily passed; if one wants to see the good side, Bruce is willing to go against the Party, and he sites the 60,000 families that love their Obamacare subsidies (does he have polling data that these people vote for him?  Unlikely.)  Short sighted though; the "best" (that is, worst) of Obamacare is yet to come.

In fairness to Bruce, many liberty/super patriot/Constitutionalists openly supported Kevin Raye backed, Blaine Richardson--of lets invade Syria fame.  Perhaps he is looking for another constituency?  Or the Insurance companies own him.
