While Mainers have long been aware of these facts, some national media outlets and political analysts are just coming to realize how strong her appeal truly is. Chris Cillizza, a political analyst for The Washington Post, summed up his feelings about the Maine Senate race, saying that "this race continues to confound."
Why is Cillizza confounded? Well, he probably assumes like many in the national media that Maine's U.S. Senate race will be close because Maine is a blue state and the Iraq war will hurt Collins. These reporters, however, fail to recognize that voters in this state don't choose their elected officials based on party affiliations, but make those decisions based on performance.
In 2008, Maine voters will reject the blatant partisanship of Allen's campaign and will re-elect a senator who values getting things done over her party label.

I'm "confounded," re: why 5K+ Maine's College Republican club's chapter members haven't enlisted in the Army?
Let's show some authentic "patriotism" (vs. spewing relentless partisan rhetoric).
