Olympia Snowe is no longer doomed:
In October of 2009 only 31% of Maine GOP voters stood with Snowe, while 59% wanted to replace her with someone more conservative. … [O]ver the last seven months there's been a major transformation, and now 46% of primary voters in the state stand with Snowe compared to only 47% who want to replace her from the right. Snowe's approval rating with GOP primary voters is up from 47/44 in March to now 51/37.
Weigel previously predicted that no incumbent Republican will lose a primary to a Tea Partier in 2012. And one of the obvious successes of Occupy Wall Street has been to change the mood – and capture it for a while. I don't think Romney's Mormonism will be the albatross of his campaign (although I do believe its capacity to keep some evangelicals at home) but I do suspect an annual income of $26 million and a net worth ten times that will seem somewhat out of touch with the times.
