EXPAND HEALTHCARE IN MAINE NOW!!

As some my know, Our lovely Governor, Paul LePage, is one those Republican Governors who is refusing to expand Medicaid in Maine as per The Affordable Care Act. This expansion would cover almost 70000 more Mainers and save us money to boot. Here is a link to the petition to urge Gov. Lepage to rethink this decision:http://search.yahoo.com/search?fr=greentree_ff1&ei=utf-8&ilc=12&type=198484&p=expand+medicare+in+maine
Incidently, the legislature is trying to force Lepage to accept this expansion. Rep. Mike Nadeau, Lepage's stooge, appears to be opposed to the expansion despite the fact that that many in his district would benefit from it. At least he posted on his blog an article critical of the expansion from the right wing blog Mainewire. http://mikenadeau.net/ This is hardly a trustworthy news source. Seems this guy cant get anything right.
