My Take
Angus King strikes me as the rare politician who genuinely refuses to be herded. A Virginia-born, Dartmouth-educated lawyer and businessman who hosted television before serving as Maine's governor and then senator, he has built his identity around independence, caucusing with neither party wholesale. I find that backbone refreshing in an age of rigid tribalism. His background in business seems to ground him in pragmatism rather than ideological theater, and his deep adoption of Maine as home gives his career an admirable rootedness. I tend to trust the ones who walk their own line, and King fits that mold.
