Georgia and the Convention

Georgia and the Convention

Just a few days ago Russia invaded our ally and sovereign nation of Georgia. How quickly we forget, as I find it interesting that we are shocked that Russia’s Prime Minister Vladimir Putin, or really ‘Dictator in Chief’ is behaving like the former soviet KGB agent he is. In what is a clearly a neo-soviet [...]

Swing Vote

Swing Vote

Cute, funny, not bad, and a good satirical political film good for several laughs. The film does deal with some serious adult themes that may be difficult for some younger audiences as the film is really geared for adults.

A Party in Need of a Cause

A Party in Need of a Cause

I was extremely disappointed by our party’s inability to pass a resolution in support of energy independence.

A Heroic Feat of Titanic Proportions

A Heroic Feat of Titanic Proportions

Today I was retold the story of a truly Herculean feat of such epic proportions, that it defies imagination.

What feat am I referring to, a feat that has all the Gods of Olympus on bended [...]

Random Thought, Needing Inspiration at 3am

Random Thought, Needing Inspiration at 3am

As a young republican in Maine and as a member of the state committee I believe I have a unique view of our party. The Maine Republican party has become too comfortable with second place, the minority, but why not? Politics is a contact sport with those in power being under constant siege, constant scrutiny, [...]

A Frustrated Republican, Yet Optimistic.

A Frustrated Republican, Yet Optimistic.

A little about me and why I’m running for office

A little about me and why I'm running for office

The descendant of more than five generations of Mainers from The County to the coast, I may have been born away but Maine is in my blood, it is my heritage and one I am proud of. My parents like many Mainers moved away because they were looking for work seeking the opportunity they unfortunately [...]
