What they need to be concerned about is susan collins dropping alegations on male outsiders!
@
Troy jackson represents the working class, not the consulting class. Comparing vp harris run to troy jackson is a joke, harris represents her donors
@
When did cbs turn into FOX?
@
No, they obviously shouldn't be concerned. CBS FAKE News should be concerned about it's ratings, ZERO, like Trumpty Dumpty's IQ.
@
Very much!
@
No his fine. Hack no news.
@
Hey CBS News, I don't want to tell you how to do your job, BUT please provide a live interview with Senator Mitch McConnell.
@
You mean when you only replace the headstone, not the socialist? Yes.
@
Susan Collin’s needs to go no matter what
@
Why be concerned? He has the same leftist pro-working class views as Platner, but without the negative baggage.
@
Troy Jackson for Senator
@
This is what's called a push pole
@
Can't fool me twice, still only believe the first time because Planter didn't keep running
@
he doesn't seem mentally ill like Graham
@
He's really well known in Maine, it's not like he's coming in trying to introduce himself
@
I don't agree that we should have an open border.
@
This segment is a hit piece. Jackson is polling above Collins. Jackson also represents a right district, showing that he can win republicans over. CBS is a rightwing slop organization.

I wonder what random ex girlfriend from 20 years ago is going to get paid by the Establishment to accuse this guy of sexual assault too.

If by Democrats you mean party apparatchiks & consultant class — sure.
Regular folks, on the other hand, have nothing to worry about.

The only one who needs to be concerned is Susan Collins.
