Too bad he didn't share the same consequence for that as the guy in the movie.
I can tolerate a lot of crap if a guy votes to organize the Senate Republican, because that gives us the committee chairs and majorities as well as Majority Leader, but as Hugh Hewitt says, the guy's got to get at least one of the big issues right, which Chafee hasn't. And his war vote this week was just another stick in the eye of R.I. pubbies.
I think the guy's toast. Who would vote for him as an Indy??? Not the Dems, who desperately want the Senate. Certainly not pubbies, if he's not even gonna vote for a pubbie Senate anymore.
