Maine governor: I'm hoping for a brokered convention

“I’m pushing for a floor fight … I’d like to see a good old-fashioned convention and a dark horse come out,” LePage told my colleagues Dave Catanese and Alexander Trowbridge at the National Governors Association winter meeting. “I think the candidates, in my mind, have injured themselves and injured the party by not following Ronald Reagan’s ‘never speak badly of another Republican.’”

While LePage didn’t knock any of the current GOP candidates by name, he made it clear he considers them too compromised to enter a general election on strong footing.
