Correction: After Backing Tax Bill, Collins Says Her Demands Won’t Be Voted DOWN This Year. They’ll wait until next year to officially laugh at all of her demands.

It’s past time to call a permanent moratorium on covering any statements, tweets, posts, communications, interviews or other utterances from Susan Collins. Let her be ignored henceforth unto perpetuity.

I guess she thinks people didn’t see the part when the house said her demands were doa.

And Collins is shocked, just shocked that the GOP will not meet her demands. Oops! Sorry for my sexist comment.

“Collins had originally insisted that the policies—which she argued would mitigate the damage done to the nation’s health care markets by repealing the individual mandate and would prevent deep cuts to Medicare—be passed and signed into law before she cast her vote on the tax bill.”

We should’ve known better.

Her lips were moving.

She’s been in Congress way too long to feign surprise. She wasn’t duped either. In fact she’s the one that did the duping with her " I care" schtick. She just fucked over her constituents. They should return the favor.

Between her and LePage, we need an eastern San Andreas Fault, to allow Maine to slip away into the Atlantic.

And on top of that, they’re going to throw in a bridge over the East River for you, . . . and a set of steak knives.

They’re the ones who keep sending her back for term after term. All she has to do is keep waving her ever-shrinking fig leaves of rugged bipartisany independent independency at them and the Maine voters’ bizarre non-partisan fetish will be enough to push her over the top.

On the upside, though, the same fetish has kept them from noticing that Angus King is a solid Democrat.
