Bowdoin Lecturer Angus King Announces Senate Bid
Tonight at Bowdoin, after giving a lecture on the Cuban Missile Crisis, the former Governor of Maine and Independent announced his bid to replace the seat soon to be vacated by Olympia Snowe . King, who teaches a class on Leadership in the college’s Government Department, invoked famous Bowdoin alum Joshua Chamberlain at the end of the announcement. He promised to stay true to Maine’s interests, and lead the “charge” against partisan politics–just as Chamberlain led his historic charge at Gettysburg.
