        What @Governor_LePage said was maybe I'll finish term, maybe I won't finish term. That's it. The rest was SPIN. #mepolitics

        Again, how is this spin? It's the governor's account but his staff frequently are the ones who tweet. We're trying to find out.

        The best part of your story was the podcast, where we can hear directly from Gov. Show some compassion and don't pile on.

        They shouldn't be. Your comments – your attitudes – have no place in public office.

        Being called a racist for saying racist things is nothing like being hit with a racial slur. That you would equate them…

      you misunderstand the point of Mark Twain's humor. But I get that it's probably a bit advanced for someone like you.
