The smell of victory. I'd rather actually have a DEM in the Senate than Lincoln Chaffage.

We'll trade a RI Democrat for a NJ Republican. Change is good.

Laffey’s efforts to link Chafee with the extremely unpopular President Bush also appear to be paying off,” said Profughi.

Is that dreaming by the reporter or what? I imagine conservatives are upset with Chafee for NOT supporting the president, especially with the president's appointments needing Senate confirmation.

"Laffey’s efforts to link Chafee with the extremely unpopular President Bush also appear to be paying off,” said Profughi."

Is this what is going on among the Republican primary voters up there? Chafee is too close to Bush?

Too bad!

Laffey is just a small town mayor. It's too bad that RI can't come up with a pubbie candidate who's up to the responsibilities befitting a Senator.

>>>>Chafee is too close to Bush?

Chafee didn't even vote FOR Bush; forget voting with him. This is an example of pasting in a media talking point w/ no brain work whatsoever involved.

Someone explain this to me. Chafee rarely supports Bush. Is Laffey saying he'd support Bush even less?

Oh, you mean like Lincoln Chafee who worked as a blacksmith before inheriting the Senate seat from his dad?

Chafee will pull a Lieberman, and run as an independant just to screw the party.

I don't buy it.

No, the commentator who wrote the 'analysis' part of this is just copying and pasting MSM spin on a word processor. There are Democrats who are more supportive of GWB's policies than Lincoln Chaffage.

Screwing the party is what he does best.
