Praise for Sen. Collins

By Ed Nussbaum - Nashua | Oct 27, 2018

Maine voters should be proud of their senator for demonstrating critical thinking in her decision to confirm Justice Brett Kavanaugh. It’s a shame that our senators trotted out party talking points to explain their votes against confirmation. I suspect that their votes were carved in granite before the hearings, and maybe even before the nomination.

I wish that Sen. Susan Collins’ critical analysis would be seen in every high school civics/government class, to be followed up by a class where the students would discuss the process, with the teacher serving as an unbiased moderator. It would be a great learning experience for these future voters.
