On July 10, 2006, annonymous user 207.136.224.178 added material to this article regarding campaign finance controversies that have come up in the Rainville campaign. This material appears generally factual and is important to include in the article, but as currently written, it reads like an anti-Raiville editorial. It needs to be cleaned up, edited into NPOV/encyclopedic language, and facts need to be properly cited.Cbvt 22:25, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

It should be noted (although I do not have good NPOV sources other than the Jeffords quote) that many in the state wanted to vote for her, but could not bring themselves to send a Republican to Washington, given current national politics. She would have done (and probably will do) much better in a State office election (or as an independent, who would not vote for national Republican leadership) —MJBurrage • TALK • 13:50, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
