Chafee should lose, he will defect to the Democrats so fast that Mitch McConnell's head will spin if it comes down to it.

We were in 50/50 position before, and Chafee did not switch party. Some people said that's because Jefford did it first. I don't buy it. Chafee could have been better off siding with the Dims majority if he wanted to do so. Yet, he did not. So, yes, he is a liberal, and I hate him for some of his votes. Yet, he consistently voted for the Republican leaderships. Unless we prefer to have Senate Judiciary Chairman Pat Leahy, I'd say vote for Chafee.

Given the issue of national security I cannot imagine not voting for the republican no matter how much it hurts. We owe it to the troops to make the sacrifice and vote R.....all across the line.

Chafee seems particularly unintelligent. Pathetic, but that R gives him so measure of protection this time.

Next primary work hard to get a better candidate.
