This Seat is Going Blue next time, Chafee or Laffey, no difference.
Not necessarily. The 'Rats strongest candidate (Congressman James Langevan) decided not to run, and the two announced candidates (Secretary of State Matt Brown and ex-Attorney General Sheldon Whitehouse) have generated little enthusiasm even in their own party.
Your wrong on that. If Chaffee survives the primary, he will win without much of a problem. Both Congressman have said no, and the other candidates have 0 name ID, cash, or party backing.
That said, I can't decide if we are better off w/o Chaffee or not. I'm leaning toward thinking we are better off without him.
