I’m voting for Dean Scontras for Congress because he’s a level-headed, no-nonsense individual with traditional values who’ll apply common-sense thinking when representing us in Washington.

His opponent is Chellie Pingree, a partisan Democrat who generally votes lock-step with Nancy Pelosi, promoting feel-good spending programs to get your vote. We can’t afford Pingree.

Then there’s traditional values, extinct in some places. Pingree flies around with her live-in billionaire boyfriend and says she’s engaged. There was a day when if you lived with another for sex (some might say love), it was called “shacking up.” How many years has Pingree and her live in boyfriend been euphemistically engaged?

Are Pingree’s values the example you want your children to observe and imitate when they’ve older?

Take a step to resurrect traditional values and fiscal responsibility. Vote for Scontras for Congress.
