Brewer Comments on Daily Beast Website, Reuters

UMaine political scientist Mark Brewer commented in a story on the Daily Beast website about the Maine GOP caucus. Brewer said because of the tight national race for the Republican presidential nomination, every delegate is going to count, which was why candidates like Ron Paul and Mitt Romney felt they could not ignore Maine. Before the caucus results were announced, Brewer told Reuters that Maine’s strong libertarian streak should mean Paul can generate a mass of enthusiasm.
