Chaffee vs Whitehouse in RI in November
Laffey has conceded to Chaffee and thrown his support behind him for November run.

Whitehouse will need all the help he can get now.


BTW, Carl Sheeler did a great job and actually made a mark on the board. Congrats Carl, you ran a good race and spoke for many of us out here in other states. :patriot:

2. This is good for us. It means conservative turnout was low.

7. That's true, but this was a repug primary
So the ultra right didn't turn out to vote for their guy. The moderates voted for Lincoln.

This was indeed a referendum on Bush and the right person won.

4. I hope Democrats didn't switch and vote for Lincoln.
We have to think like Republicans to beat them at their own game.

5. Screw Laffey's concession speech. He needs to run as an Indy.
It's the Amurikan way!

6. Regardless, this was a referendum on W's radical policies
and RI shut him off cold.
