LePage Will Back Snowe in Maine

Maine Gov.-elect Paul LePage (R) says he'll support Sen. Olympia Snowe (R-ME) for re-election even if a more conservative Tea Party candidate launches a primary challenge against her in 2012, according to a local Fox News affiliate.

"Snowe has recently come under criticism from conservatives, who say she's not conservative enough. LePage, who's a favorite among the die-hard conservatives in Maine, says he'll continue to support Snowe, who -- along with her late husband Peter Snowe -- helped a young LePage get into Husson College."
