I agree. He must see Jefford's problem now and think such a move is stupid. However, I don't see Daschle backing away from trying.

Daschle can try to woo Chafee, but his political stock took a rather big hit today, wouldn't you say? The anger, the infighting, the recriminations have not even yet begun.

In fact, the fight over the soul of the RATS will put Nelson-Miller-Hollings-Lieberman against Boxer-Kennedy-Levin-Harkin in a moment's notice. It won't be pretty, but it will be entertaining.

. He must see Jefford's problem now

Jefford's goint to wander back home now that the Republicans have won the Senate. That's why he didn't switch to the Democrat party. I can't wait to hear his speech.
