@RadioFreeTom I took out loans to go to college and now it’s fair that I pay them back. That said, I believe free (or at least very affordable) post secondary education is a very good public policy and worth pushing for

Under 30 days out from E-Day this was not the reporter call I was expecting. I've always prided myself in the Democratic Party being the party of values, acceptance and decency. I think it's our job to make sure that is true.
Onward.

This is false on many levels. In 2016, the last year of Obama's presidency, Maine recorded a record lobster catch of more than 130 million pounds, which was worth a record $538 million.

Pres. Obama destroyed the lobster and fishing industry in Maine. Now it’s back, bigger and better than anyone ever thought possible. Enjoy your “lobstering” and fishing! Make lots of money!

Unfortunate result for @portlandjetport However this seems more about @JetBlue network strategy (focusing on north-south leisure routes out of BOS & JFK w less connecting traffic) than PWM as a market. Portland is growing. Maybe @Delta or @AmericanAir will backfill capacity?

The tariff China is imposing on U.S. lobsters already gives Canadian lobster dealers a competitive advantage that Maine dealers have found almost impossible to overcome in the valuable lobster export market, dealers say. pressherald.com/2018/09/18/mai…
