Chafee said: "I try not to cross any of these boundaries." Then: "Don't jump to any conclusions."

And finally: "My preference would be positive, factual, issue-oriented ads. That hasn't changed, but . . . [I am not] going to hyperventilate over one ad or a couple of ads that are occurring here a year away.

"I just know this is going to be a long campaign . . . There are going to be a lot of these ads. Some of them I'm not going to like, some of them I'm going to like."

My frustration and dissapointment in Chafee the Senator has turned to a genuine disdain for Chafee the man. What a complete ass, how he even manages to dress himself in the morning is a mystery.

The $64,000 question is why in the hell is the GOP going to give Chafee ANY money, period? What a waste...

If Chafee were replaced by a rat it would not matter.

Why vote for a fake rat when you can get a real one for the same price.

Write off RI and the rest of new england, there is nothing here to benefit the party, only traitors who will cut your nuts off when you need them the most.

Laffey's campaign site, if anyone wants to make a contribution to evicting one of the worst RINOs in the Senate.

The NRSC won't receive a dime from me.

[Soul Seeker]

I'm donating to Laffey.

Not a dime to the RNC.

Laffey is said to be a "moderate" whereas Chafee is a Liberal. That isn't why I want Chafee to lose.

Chafee is among the rarified group that truly are "Republicans in Name Only". I still remember his stunt last year stating he'd write in GHWB for President. He deserves to lose for that alone.

[NeoCaveman]

Sure fire way for (Weakest Linc) Chaffee to lose the general. Remind people of the ads paid for by the RNC. Being loved by the Republican party is the kiss of death in the liberal northeast.

There's such a sick sense of ironic justice to this all.

This is who I was referring to in our discussion a couple of days ago. The NRSC isn't even trying to get a more conservative Senate, so the argument that Bush's hands are tied because the Senate isn't conservative enough, which is years old now, flies in the face of Republican strategery [sic].

The amazing thing is that Reagan was able to go over the heads of the Democratically controlled Congress and the old liberal media, straight to the American people, because he knew what he was about. Bush is a fraud, and many many good people know it. We're in deep soil, and what's growing isn't American prosperity, or security.
