-Lynne Williams-
As her opponent has an inactive campaign it seems she will be the front-runner for the Green Party. Her website was difficult to analyze due to the existence of common sense within my veins.
To summarize:
Water should be free.
Health care should be a single payer system (Socialism).
Support of charter schools and opposition to consolidation.
The labor issues is simply represented by SEIU and ALF-CIO conference declarations. SEIU, if you shall remember, are the Purple Shirts. Followers of this blog will remember how I said Unions were becoming political, or maybe they won't. Go back a few months and read up folks.

Neither Williams nor the Maine Green Party say water should be free. What they do says is: "access to clean water is a human right. All water is held in the public trust as a common resource to be used for the benefit of the people of Maine and for the benefit of the natural ecosystems."
You can read the entire statement at http://www.lynnewilliams2010.org/issues/water-rights
She also goes on to say: The Maine Green Independent Party opposes the commodification and corporatization of water supplies. We believe that privatization of water and large-scale extraction of ground water resources for corporate profit should be prohibited, especially when it causes damage to natural communities and ecosystems.
Excerpt over.When something is a right it should inherently be free. Defending it in our lifetime should have only the expense of effort, never of cost. A right to life, the right to exist should not require us to pay a single penny. The right to water and an effort to ban commercialization means to essentially make it free. As a natural tree doesn't pay for water and is part of the system using the common resource, no one else should pay either, not even humans. That is one of the basic points of Socialism: end of Capitalism.
