It is so sad that many Maine women focus on one choice that came from massive research on Sen. Susan Collins’ part. Her research led her to the vote she made. I am ashamed of Maine women who have criticized her. They forget how much good Sen. Collins has fought for, for Mainers.

Shame on those protesters.

If women want to have a voice as women, they should raise their voices about how their children are raised — with an open mind.
