John Frary is unconventional and uses humor to get his point across. There was once another little-known politician who was also highly unconventional, was known for his wit and the ability to use that wit in the service of the people, and was completely unafraid to voice his opinion, come what may. Who was this paragon of political virtue? Just a little-known Illinois lawyer named Abraham Lincoln.

Frary is not afraid to tell the people of Maine the truth as he sees it. Like all of his positions or not, at least for once we have a chance to elect a person who will tell you what he thinks, whether he thinks you will like it or not. And that is a rare thing indeed.
