The Democrat Senator from R.I., which is amongst the Bluest of Blue States has an ACU rating of ZERO. Any Democrat replacement for Chafee would have a similar ACU rating.
We should get down on our knees and thank the Lord that we have a Republican Senator at all in Rhode Island. If he wants to prove his blue bona fides with a meaningless vote every once in a while, that is great. Alito is still confirmed, ain't he?
Complaining about Chafee being a RINO is the FR equivalent of being a DU moonbat, with a break from political reality.
It is insane to vote for a man who opposes me on every single issue. Every single one.
If Whitehouse (dem) gets in he and I will agree on as much as 15-20 % of issues.
Laffey, the republican challenger would agree on 35-40%.
I don't see me losing if Chafee does.
That is the most ridiculous statement ever posted on Free Republic.
Chafee is a social liberal trying to turn the G.O.P. to the social left from within the party.
He is poison.
