...White House has assiduously courted her; its budget director, Peter Orszag, interrupted his Maine vacation in August to have dinner with Snowe and an aide at a Greek restaurant in Portland. And the amicability has been mutual. While others in the GOP have gone so far as to brand Obama a socialist for his effort to expand the government's role in an industry that accounts for one-sixth of the nation's economy, Snowe told the New York Times that Obama is "very realistic in his views on health care ... more moderate than liberal on this question...
