Both the Jets' Brett Favre and the Chargers' Philip Rivers are not going to play in the game because of injuries. Tennessee's Kerry Collins has been named to the roster. Favre was one of three AFC quarterbacks to be named to the Pro Bowl last month. Rivers was the No. 1 alternate. Collins was the No. 2 alternate.Favre's absence was long expected. He ended the season with a shoulder injury. He rare

In past articles I’ve criticized the lame attempts by big companies pandering to environmentally conscious consumers - but here’s exactly what I’ve suggested the solution is: Local communities and businesses taking on the issue and raising awareness right in their own backyards.

According to the AP. Congratulations to Sen. Collins and her team.We'll have some more thoughts in the next few days. But for the moment, you'll forgive us if our attention is focused elsewhere.
This blog's first post, almost two years ago on November 24, 2006: The recent election gave lefties a once-a-decade jolt: The good guys won, the Republican party got the throttling it deserved, and even candidates who once seemed unbeatable--Sen. George Allen (R-VA) and Rep. Clay Shaw (R-FL) come to mind--went down to defeat.But as election night unfolded, as Democrats soared ahead in one tough co
Via Marisol, we learn of a new Rasmussen poll with great news for the Collins camp:Tom Allen (D): 41 (43) (42) (38) (42) (42) (42) (38)Susan Collins (R-inc): 57 (53) (55) (53) (49) (49) (52) (54)(Figures in parenthesis represent results from previous months.)For reasons that are unclear, the Rasmussen folks haven't included breakdowns by party in this release.But it really doesn't matter: Rasmusse
Sen. Collins has said similar things before, but I don't remember her ever stating it this plainly:I believe the biggest issue facing our country right now is an excessive partisanship.So much for the economy, so much for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.If partisanship is the problem, how does standing by corrupt, convicted felons in your own party help solve it?

Sure, Sen. Collins votes with President Bush pretty much whenever it counts. But as everyone knows, she's just not a partisan person.Except that: --Former Sen. Rick Santorum (R-PA) thinks she's a quintessential GOP team player.--She considers Karl Rove an old friend.--She called Gov. Sarah Palin (R-AK) a "great choice" for Vice President.--She remains state co-chair for a Republican presidential c

John McCain (R-AZ) [link] Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) [link]Sen. Gordon Smith (R-OR) [link]Sen. Olympia Snowe (R-ME) [link]Sen.

It's been 27 years since a senator was convicted of a felony. And it took the threat of expulsion for him to resign.Make no mistake: It may take similar pressure to bounce Sen. Ted Stevens (R-AK) out of the Senate.For Sen. Snowe, it seems to be a no-brainer:"The public trust above all else must be upheld, and therefore I believe that stepping down would be the right thing to do."Sounds awfully str
In an inexplicable move that puts her at odd with Sen. John McCain (R-AZ), Gov. Sarah Palin (R-AK), Sen. Snowe and other prominent Republicans, Sen. Collins is refusing to call for the resignation of Sen. Ted Stevens (R-AK), who was convicted of seven felonies earlier this week:"The people of Alaska will have an opportunity to express their view in just six days," Collins spokesman Kevin Kelley sa
We're still digging into the details and context of Sen. Collins' peculiarly-timed $5,000 donation to Sen. Ted Stevens (R-AK) earlier this year.But for comparison, it's worth noting that disgraced Rep. William Jefferson (D-LA) appears to have received just three contributions over $2,300 from colleagues during the 2007-8 campaign cycle. And even if you combine them, they don't add up to the $10,00
So many sheath dresses think they have to keep it simple but not this one which has gone all out on the detailing. There's a ruched longline bodice with a lace neckline panel and the skirt has cutaway detailing with a lace underskirt and sweep train.
As we just noted, it's long been common knowledge (if under-reported in the Maine press) that Sen. Collins gave $5000, via her political action committee, to Sen. Ted Stevens (R-AK) in June 2007, just as the federal corruption inquiry of Stevens gathered steam.But we've learned that Collins gave Stevens another $5000 just over four months ago--on June 11.That donation was disclosed in a campaign f

That's the natural conclusion to draw from the Collins camp's fatuous response to Planned Parenthood's endorsement of Rep. Allen.But what kind of pro-choice candidate wouldn't want the endorsement of the preeminent pro-choice organization in the country?It suggests Collins is being dishonest--a habit of late--or she doesn't take reproductive freedom all that seriously.For what it's worth, we think
Via The Maine Race, we learn that with Sen. Collins losing ground in the latest polls, another business lobbying group is coming to her aid--with a big TV ad buy.The organization in question actually bills itself as a small business lobby. But the National Federation of Independent Business was a "staunch supporter" of the recent Wall Street bailout.And three of their other top issues are the repe
tunning ripoff isn’t it. They threaten us with deprivation, then demand $700 billion. Who do they think they’re kidding.

The Money Party (7):Bailout Blackmail - Just Say No!
Column: Michael CollinsThursday, 25 September 2008, 3:09 pm
Wash. DC) We’re being blackmailed into accepting the responsibility and debt for the worst managed financial institutions
Allen campaign spokeswoman Carol Andrews comments, via e-mail, on Sen. Collins' call, in the midst of a full-blown financial crisis, for more hearings and more "market discipline":Just as with the health care crisis, it is clear to everyone except Senator Collins that it is time to act, not...study.
Gerald makes a good point. And it's echoed in the Blethen write-up.Namely: In the midst of the worst financial crisis in 75 years, Collins is resisting calls for more regulation of Wall Street. Instead, she wants "extensive oversight hearings."But does anyone with a money market account or a 401K doubt that financial institutions need new, more rigorous rules? Does anyone doubt that they're neede
Rep. Allen pounds Sen. Collins' record on economic issues:This crisis is a vivid illustration of what happens when the federal government refuses to do responsible regulation and oversight of the financial markets. That is exactly what the Bush Administration and its allies like Susan Collins and John McCain have adopted--policies and positions that have led us to the edge of financial disaster...

You with the sad eyes
Don't be discouraged
Oh I realize
It's hard to take courage
In a world full of people
You can lose sight of it all
And the darkness, inside you
Can make you feel so small
But I see your true colors
Shining through
I see your true colors
And that's why I love you
So don't be afraid to let them show
Your true colors
True colors are beautiful,
Like a rainbow

Kathryn Kolbert--the woman who argued successfully at the Supreme Court for Planned Parenthood in Planned Parenthood v. Casey--thinks Sen. Collins lapsed into extremism, voting against reproductive freedom, when she backed the Alito nomination:By the time he was nominated to the Supreme Court, Justice Alito had clearly shown how little respect he had for a woman's constitutional right to choose. S
As Maine Politics notes, the Collins campaign is working like mad to paint VoteVets as a tool of the liberal fringe. And I wouldn't be surprised if more than a few of Sen. Collins' dittoheads in the Maine press corps accept that characterization.But VoteVets is a veteran-founded, veteran-run organization that, according to its website, has 102,000 thousands of veteran members. Its stated mission i
By now it's abundantly clear that Gov. Sarah Palin (R-AK) makes a disastrous Vice Presidential nominee.She's mired in an ethics scandal; her views on social issues are basically reactionary; and she's got the thinnest resume we've seen from a nominee in decades--if not longer.It was an unconscionably irresponsible pick. Everyone who's looked at her record knows this.Thankfully, many Republicans ar
Via PolitickerME.com.Not a shock that he characterizes Sen. Collins' re-election as part of the solution to the GOP's "problems in the northeast."But it is notable and interesting that he found time, during an extraordinarily busy week, to talk to the Maine delegates.Maybe he thought of the speech as a favor to his old friend the junior senator?
The Collins camp sends Neal Williams out with talking points misleading enough to cry out for clarification.Williams mentions just after 1:05 that the amendment Collins has supported represents an effort to "recover reconstruction costs" from Iraq. But then, just after 1:20, he reframes the proposal as an attempt to "recover the costs of this war."Don't be fooled.Remember, the Iraq war is on its w
The junior senator praised the selection of the staunchly pro-life governor and Pat Buchanan fan as her party's vice presidential nominee:Palin’s lack of experience--she has been governor for less than two years and was a mayor in an Anchorage suburb before that--is not a concern, Collins said.UPDATE: It appears that Susan Collins and Sarah Palin have something in common. (Context here. And here
This is entering self-caricature territory. And we're only in August. Yup: Sen. Collins delivers a speech--billed as a "special message"--that runs a full 100 seconds without mentioning a single issue or issue position.
A bus appears to be involved. More here.UPDATE: Remember, it wasn't long ago that Sen. Collins was saying that Mainers don't want to hear about politics until after Labor Day.

Maine Politics spots a new ad from the Collins camp.Juxtaposed alongside Sen. Collins' undignified speculations about John Edwards, it provides quite the contrast.
If this isn't super-icky, I'm not sure what is.
Is it just me, or is it clear from Sen. Collins' gleeful reaction that the discussion of Edwards pretty much made her day?
The key section begins at 3:30. But it starts to get ugly way back at 1:59.
The Portland Press Herald is one of the "news" organizations most responsible for advancing the myth that, facts be damned, Sen. Collins is a bipartisan moderate centrist who loves to reach across the aisle.And yet, even this Collins-friendly paper is now admitting the truth: That the junior senator has voted with President Bush 77% of the time.Getting a newspaper to concede a demonstrable truth s
PolitickerME points us to a nifty new feature at CQ.com: A rundown of presidential support scores for every member of Congress. Sen. Collins clocks in at 77%: She's sided with the President on just more than three out of every four votes over the last seven-plus years.(Rep. Allen, by contrasts, has supported the position of President Bush a measly 18% of the time.)We knew the junior senator's Bush
This just in from PolitickerME:Sen. Susan Collins agrees with the message in several ads that attack opponent and U.S. Rep. Tom Allen for his support of the Employee Free Choice Act...a spokesman for her campaign said Wednesday.So there you go.The junior senator is now on the record endorsing the view that unions, as a group, are more pernicious than mafia.She's on the record standing behind the l
From the anti-union, Wal-Mart-backed Coalition for a Democratic Workplace:Fact-check of a nearly-identical ad here.If Sen. Collins has an issue with these kinds of dishonest attack ads, you wouldn't know it.
Maine Politics breaks the story. No word yet on whether Sen. Collins will ask for her $5,000 back from Stevens.It's worth underscoring that Sen. Collins' PAC went ahead with its donation to Alaska's senior senator last June, right around the time that evidence of Stevens' wrongdoing was mounting.Of course, she is a Republican team player.

This 75-year-old actress, writer and socialite has been around for the longest time in showbiz and looks just as stunning now as she did years ago when she made her 16-year-old debut on the silver screen. It would be natural to think that Joan's good looks have been preserved with the help of plastic surgery (face lift, fillers, etc.), but the vehemence with which she denies these rumors is stron
From PolitickerME:Total raised last quarter: $1,056,469Total raised: $6.5 millionCash on hand: $5.1 millionThat's just slightly more than Rep. Allen raised for the quarter.As the Collins camp notes, the junior senator retains a $2 million cash-on-hand advantage.But with these latest figures, it's as clear as ever that this race will be decided by something other than dollars.

The new Collins-friendly push poll from Richard Berman's anti-union astroturf group presents the junior senator with her first opportunity to stand by her camp's recent pledge to shun support from outside attack groups.So will Collins repudiate Berman and his slimy tactics? Or will she and her staff sit by silently as the so-called Employee Freedom Action Committee works to malign Rep. Allen?
