Is He Out Of Step
with the citizens of Maine?
I think this story says it all about inflated egos and mandates, especially when the governor won with 38% of the vote.
I do like this part:
He defended a campaign to lift a ban on the endocrine disruptor bisphenol-A in baby bottles by joking that the worst thing that could happen is “some women may have little beards.”
. . .
On Monday, eight of 20 Republican state senators criticized the governor’s often bellicose behavior in an op-ed published by the state’s largest newspaper chain. The next day, LePage’s bisphenol-A initiative was rejected 35-0 in the state senate, after a 145-3 defeat in the House.
Either Governor Le Page has no political sense or ? ? ? ? ?
Well, the Guv is certainly out of step with the legislature in Maine. (my bolds)
After November’s election, Maine Republicans had reason to feel heady. Their candidate, Tea Party-backed conservative Paul LePage, was headed to the governor’s mansion in Augusta, where the GOP had won a majority in both legislative chambers for the first time in nearly half a century.
