Is Lincoln Chafee toast?

[snowbear]

He has the job for now.. but this guy is closing in on him fast:


Matthew Brown, Secretary of State ~ Democrat

The National Review urges Repugs to "Dump Chafee"

Who's going to win Rhode Island?

[iconocrastic]

1. Whom do they recommend replacing him with? n/t

[snowbear]

2. Alan Keyes?

[fob]

3. Does george bush* masturbate horses!

Note: I have no insight in this, but with a setup like that I couldn't resist the smartass (but true!) comment.

And I hope another repuke says goodbye to the government teat they've been whoring around to the highest bidder.

4. he's hot! - I mean Brown

"... Steven Laffey, the Republican mayor of Cranston, is running against Chafee in the September primary...."

Their primary is in September? That's a lllooonnggg season.

6. So.. Is Laffey an R then?

[Katherine Brengle]

5. Jim Langevin would have beat him already, if it weren't for the inept

progressive apparatus in which no group can work with any other group, ugh.

(Sorry, I am reading a book right now that happened to mention the Chafee/Langevin debacle and it pissed me off.)

7. southern Democrats were crucified by Republicans in 1994..

and Bill Clinton was the cross these Democrats were nailed to. It is fascinating to watch the same now happening to northeastern Republicans like Chaffee! Chaffee has a primary opponent who is running on the rage of Republican neocons. On the other side Democrats are winning votes by linking Chaffee to Bush, and by winning over moderates who no longer feel comfortable having Republicans to represent them.

Chaffee can win conservative votes, but only by risking support from moderates in November. Or he could attack this adminstration..and the Congress which serves them, but lose his head in the primary! What Goes Around Comes Around. :nopity:
