Noted in “Eyeing comeback, Maine’s former governor pitches ‘LePage 2.0’,” Michael Shepherd, Bangor Daily News:
[Former Governor LePage] is promising a “LePage 2.0.” Those who have heard him use the phrase take it to mean a calmer and issue-focused iteration of the former two-term governor. Democrats may scoff at such a rebranding after his chaotic eight-year tenure. His era ended with their party taking and keeping control of Augusta under Gov. Janet Mills, LePage’s stylistic antipode.
