"Maine Republicans have created a webpage revealing that Democrat candidate Colleen Lachowicz plays an orc rogue in World of Warcraft (WoW).

In a statement that accompanies the webpage, Maine Republicans said playing the game led Ms Lachowicz to live a "bizarre double life" that raised questions about her ability to represent the state.

The page also detailed some of the comments Ms Lachowicz has made while talking about her orc rogue, in particular it highlights her affection for Santiaga's ability to stab things and kill people without suffering a jail sentence."

You know you've got no real dirt on the woman when this is the best you can come up with.

Who would not do anything to be able to walk up behind some random person and stab them repeatedly?

Getting in before the lock.

Personally, this whole gaming stereotype is so 90's and the view needs to be modernized.

WoW? Meh. Now, let's say they found out that the lady played EVE... that would be a serious issue.
