You can also call the Maine governor's office: number is available online.

Please do call- these women in Maine prisons have no one but us to save them.

The female, Democratic governor signed the bill (what a piece of work) but that doesn't mean Americans can't call her office and raise hell. The Democrats need to know that they will lose sane voters from across the political spectrum when they pull this utterly horrible shit.

The Dems and The GOP have been running a con game for decades. They will always point to the GOP and say "they're worse", and the GOP will do the same. The faithful sheep of both parties will bleat out what ever vote they're told to, and society will worsen so long as government directs the energies of the population to serve the greed of those who bribe politicians.

The more we look around our neighborhoods and begin helping each other, and realizing that we have no real power over national politics and little if any over state politics, we can build what we can and starve the beast a bit.

Totally agree. I have long been trans-partisan, both in theory and in life.

Carey Wedler sums up my view of the political parties pretty well here, and centralized government really:
