The Associated Press reports rising conflict in Maine's GOP over spendthrift tactics and campaign trips. Democrat Clyde Bartlett accuses Rep. Peter Garland and Rep. Stanley Tupper of wasting taxpayer money on junkets abroad, citing Tupper's $1500 Europe trip to study fishing fleets and ports. Bartlett questions its value to Portland and the state.
