Maine's blog world continues to grow. Here are a couple great new blogs I've come across lately:

• ME-01- The race for Maine's 1st Congressional District
  This site gives some clear, concise statistical analysis of the CD1 race, something that is much needed in general up here. The post about Pingree's funding sources was especially good:A Closer Look at Chellie Pingree's Fundraising
• Lucky Cambridge's Maine Point
  This site is a riot. Cambridge has a real unique voice, and his analysis of the CD1 race so far has been poignant and funny. Here's an example, from a post about the CD1 candidate commercials:

  Chellie Pingree is sticking with what didn’t work in 2002 - the “I’m pissed off because somebody hit me in the forehead with a hatchet” gig. Girded with plenty of campaign cash, the Pingree camp contracts with high-level media production therefore using a camera slightly more sophisticated than a Brennan cell phone. Even though it’s evident that Cote’s 14-year-old niece had the day off from doing make-up, no amount of filler or base can hide that cleft sitting smack-dab in the middle of Chellie’s squash. One thing comes across - She’s still pissed off.
