For the record, the only R seat up in 2006 that has any chance of changing hands is Snowe's in Maine. The Democrats are in trouble for 4 seats and a strong candidate could make 4 more D seats competitive.

Jim Jeffords? I think he was rewarded by his gutsy move after the 2002 election, where he went from being a bigshot with the majority dems, to the offical mens washroom attendant of the US Senate.
We need to punish people severely who do that kind of stuff. Jeffors can't suffer enough.
As I said at the time, "I hope he likes his new friends."

$10 says Frist is receiving phone calls looking to swap places and get those perks. Nelson of Nebraska or Landrieu of Lousiana, who, by the way, just found out that Hell actually does freeze over.

MSNBC would love to have him as a political analyst for their evening telecasts. Having Lincoln & a Reagan on the same show blasting President Bush would really please them.

I predict that the pubbies will net 1-2 seats in 2006. If Chafee switches and Snowe goes down, it'll be even.
What Chafee could do is become an I but still caucus with the Republicans. The question is, with the attention that gets him, will the Pubbies just cut him loose? (I.e., give him zero seniority.)

I don't know about NE Nelson, but it would be fine if Landrieu were to vote with Frist 100% of the time, but if she changes parties, she's in deep trouble. She's from a Dem family from way back.

Yes true, but swapping parties is the death blow for any bipartisanship. he will get nothing for the repubs if he does.

When is this a-hole's term up? Got to get rid of him.2006 and the question is who will challenge him in the (R) primary because someone will.

Not quite that many, we still want the majority! Although with their giant-sized egos, I sometimes honestly wonder if it's worth it.

Gee, does anybody even remember the last persons name that did this, in order to help Billy Jeff??? For the life of me I don't remember and whoever he is, he's beyond being a relatively minor footnote in History. LOL Don't leave sadly Chafee, just leave.

Give them all low level cabinet positions so that Bush can say he put democrats in his cabinet.

Without him in the composite photo, the Republican Senators will improve their appearance
Plus, if he jumps to the dims, the average IQ of both parties will go up.

Don't let the screen door hit you on the way out comrade
Not much chance of that...the only doors on his house, that have screens, are on the servants quarters.
