    Tomorrow I will also vote No on the rules package, which is trying to slip in . PAYGO isn’t only bad economics, as explains; it’s also a dark political maneuver designed to hamstring progress on healthcare+other leg. We shouldn’t hinder ourselves from the start.

    Maine Repub Gov Paul LePage -- who said drug traffickers (a) are mostly black and hispanic and (b) should have their heads cut off -- leaves office tonight, but not before pardoning a pro-LePage GOP State Rep... for his felony drug trafficking conviction.

    If 's work so far is any indication, an cohort of Maine reporters who have only ever known obfuscation from the Blaine House will have access, for the first time, to gubernatorial calendars. This small change is a big win for transparency and accountability.
