Maine Governor Paul LePage got the benefit of a very strong liberal Independent (who actually outperformed the Democrat running for Gov) in 2010 is thought of as one of the most endangered Governors of either party heading into next year. He is a hard line conservative in a state that isn't and has had poor #'s pretty much throughout his tenure, well he just upped the ante a bit according to a couple members of his own party.
Quote:
Gov. Paul LePage told a group of Republicans last week that President Obama "hates white people," according to two state lawmakers who say they heard the remark directly.
The governor made the comment during a Maine Republican Party fundraiser on Aug. 12 at the home of John and Linda Fortier in Belgrade. According to the invitation, the fundraiser was a "meet and greet" for LePage and first lady Ann LePage, and an opportunity to meet Rick Bennett, the new party chairman.
The lawmakers, both Republicans, confirmed the comment when asked by a Portland Press Herald reporter but asked that their names be withheld for fear of political retribution.

Sounds too much like hearsay with no recording and no one else coming forward, but this isn't a court case, and both of the witnesses are Republicans that are probably just as conservative as the governor. I do think if this was true, it seems like it's mostly just incendiary hyperbole.

Like when Joe Biden said that Republicans want to put black people back in chains.
