Look there’s nothing wrong about coming from a well-off family. But own it. Explain why you went a different way or how you took a different path because you had the luxury of doing so. But don’t go to Marden’s just to blend in.
There are and have been Democratic candidates in Maine from working class backgrounds. Troy Jackson and Mike Michaud come to mind. With them as the comparator, Platner is not one. #mepolitics www.editorialboard.com/why-graham-p...

People are pissed about the Senate. I am, too.
That’s why it’s so important that House Democrats continue to fight like hell for affordable health care (and hopefully get a few Rs to join us).
Silver lining: Rep. Grijalva can now be sworn in—which gives us the votes to release the Epstein files.

1/2 The shutdown “deal” revolves around a wink and a nod that Sen. Thune will hold a vote on lowering healthcare premiums in December.
That doesn’t guarantee it will happen. It also doesn’t guarantee it will pass.
