Susan Collins Video Hits Mainstream Media
Friday, August 15, 2008 at 9:45AM The Associated Press picked up on the story and it's made its way to The Boston Globe.
Now the question on my mind is how far will this go? What started out on political blogs is now spreading through mainstream New England press. Will it hit network news? CNN? Fox? NESN? The Food Network? It still unfolds.
There's one thing that should be pointed out in WCSH's story and a few others I've seen posted, and thanks to bloggers for noticing too. Senator Collins was NOT asked if she thought the child belonged to John Edwards. She volunteered her opinion on that.
I've heard from Collins staff and she is still a friend of the station and is still willing to appear on our show in the future. When she does it should be an interesting conversation to say the least.
Here are a few more links to sites that are covering this story. A few of these links are the same story as it was pulled from the AP. WCSH 6's video is above, and kudos to them for including embed codes for their videos.

I have to say I applaud her for speaking her mind and I have to say it is the first time I have heard her do that. She seems to walk the party line a lot and has definitely stepped out of line with that one. I think that she supports mainers well, but rarely does anything to cause controversy. I LOVE IT
