    Re: The States: At Least Michigan is Better Than Indiana

    SCARBOROUGH, Me. — Shawn Moody has made his difficult upbringing and success in business the twin pillars of his campaign to become Maine’s next governor, boasting in commercials, debates and speeches about how he built his automobile repair stores from scratch after he was raised by a single mother.

    “I would put my record up against anyone about knowing how to grow a successful business,” said Mr. Moody, the Republican nominee in one of the country’s most competitive races for governor.

    But for Jill Hayward, herself a single mother, there is nothing quite as painful as seeing Mr. Moody appear on television recounting how he overcame childhood hardship to make Moody’s Collision Centers into a multi-million-dollar regional powerhouse.

    In 2006, Ms. Hayward, a former member of management at a Moody’s store, filed a sexual discrimination complaint against Mr. Moody with the Maine Human Rights Commission, accusing him of firing her because he did not think she was up to the job after giving birth to her son. “I want to see you grow,” he told her, according to the previously undisclosed complaint, but with her new parental obligations, “I’m not sure that you can do that in this job.” Mr. Moody ultimately settled the complaint and, she said, paid her around $20,000.

    Don't worry, Moody. Susan Collins has got your back.

      Real clear politics and cook political report both rate it as likely D. I'd call it solid D myself. He's up 15-20 points in every poll

        He won in 2014 in a much redder political environment.

        I think he's fine.

              Just like Susan Collins staffers, she can get another job, right scoobs?

                Um, she was fired because she had a kid. She had no choice in the matter.

                Collins' staffers are free to find another job anytime they'd like if being yelled at over the phone by angry voters is too stressful for them.

                          She's banking on her husband's NHL career in every single ad I've seen of hers. The problem with that strategy is that after high school he didn't really have any MN connections during his playing career. Looking at her resume, she has held a number of elected positions, but I had to research that. How many voters are going to really go out there and research that information?
