I normally do not get involved in political wrangling, but I want to extend my thanks to John Balentine for his column in the American Journal. (Here’s Something: “Boos and Bravos,” Nov. 4).
He hit the nail on the head in his assessment of Maine’s political scene at this point in time. I wish that more folks shared his point of view. My thanks to him for putting together such an honest and factual assessment of our heroes and villains at this time.
