Winning this senate seat is much more important than any of that. And 2020 proved that running nobody against Collins is a bad move. Mills can literally step down second after she's sworn in for all I care.

Susan Collins was challenged in 2020 by the state house speaker, who was funded very generously by the DSCC, what are you talking about?

Compared to two term governor that's nobody. Both parties pretty much always try to run governors for competitive senate races , they proved themselves they can win statewide, there's no conspiracy here.

And the Rs have younger governors. I never said there was a conspiracy, I just think it’s poor strategy. Chuck Schumer’s not smart enough to do a real conspiracy.

(Former) Governors have proven track record of winning/overperforming so it's an obvious choice to try to recruit no matter the age. And Collins is only few years younger than Mills and Maine is the oldest state.

"Susan Collins is also old" isn't a defense here
