In Maine, Susan Collins isn't just a senator — she's a first-name-basis institution. David Marcus went on the ground in Bangor and found something polls can't capture: voters on both sides of the aisle who simply refuse to believe the three-decade incumbent can lose.

Democrats and Republicans alike call her "Susan," not "Collins." Firefighters, bartenders, antique shop owners — nearly everyone Marcus spoke to has met her personally. The kindest words anyone had for challenger Troy Jackson? "Somebody had to run."

Polls give Jackson a slight lead, but the street-level reality tells a different story. Former Sen. Joe Manchin flew in to campaign for Collins this week, reinforcing her brand as a centrist who survives where others can't. And the word "Trump" barely came up — voters see Collins as independent from the president entirely.

My Latest. From the ground in Maine.

@BlueBoxDave I know someone who calls her “Susie”. 🙂

Too bad we were out of town while you were in town. We’d have asked you over for dinner.

Education prescriptions are like diet advice: every generation it gets turned upside down and you find out that what was exalted at one time is entirely wrong. The only way out of the vicious cycle is to go back to the original education recipe: classical education.

@marcthiessen And not only that, she genuinely cares about Maine and has done a lot for the state. I do not agree with a number of her views, but I will vote for her. Jackson was ineffective in the state legislature and would have zero effect in DC.

@BiblicalBeauty Terrible. Like these women haven’t been through enough.

@MrsCMFrancis East Indian friends used salt and lemon. I don’t have any copper — I grew up cleaning waaaay too much with Twinkle to ever want any — but it wouldn’t hurt to try!

@nickaramaOG @BlueBoxDave Having lived in Maine for over 30 years, this is accurate.

@curt_gamer @MrsCMFrancis Good for the brain and developing fine motor skills.

@emmmmmilyau @MrsCMFrancis I loved Saxon math. The math drill sheets were great. Never used flash cards because they were redundant.

@MrsCMFrancis Following advice from someone else, I bought old dictionaries to have what many important words really mean.

We can’t let this spread to America & I’ll make sure it doesn’t ever happen in Ohio. End sanctuary cities. Prosecute Medicaid & visa fraud. Work with ICE rather than against them.

You’ve gotta love how grandmothers walking through the Rotunda is an insurrection, and Third World migrants setting fire to cultural relics is a student protest.

Now that USAID is gone, who’s funding this?

Americans don’t want noncitizens voting in U.S. elections

If you want to know why America is polarized, it’s the fault of the media.

Yesterday, the Free Beacon, a conservative outlet, caught Abdul Sayed in a lie when Abdul denied his family had a connection to the Muslim Brotherhood. The FB showed a tweet by his own sister saying their mother belonged to the MB.

The revelation that Abdul lied about his family ties to a radical Islamic terrorist group was ignored by NBC, ABC, CBS’s nightly news shows. The NYT and WP haven’t covered it.

This should be a screaming front page story. Instead, the MSM runs cover for Abdul.

The American people just want to know the truth about their politicians. Instead, the media are helping Abdul cover up the truth.

Abdul has a lot to hide. It’s a tragedy the MSM is part of the team helping him hide it.
