Former Rhode Island Governor Lincoln Chafee formally announced his bid for the 2016 Democratic presidential nomination on Wednesday, becoming the third candidate to challenge party front-runner Hillary Clinton.
Chafee, 62, a former Republican U.S. senator as well as an independent for a short time, announced his campaign in a speech at George Mason University in Virginia, just outside Washington. He became a Democrat in 2013.
"I enjoy challenges and certainly we have many facing America," Chafee said, adding: "Today, I'm formally entering the race for the Democratic nomination for president."
Although his 2016 bid is a long shot, Chafee's entry into the race adds one more challenger facing Clinton, the former senator and U.S. secretary of state.
Former Maryland Governor Martin O'Malley announced his bid for the Democratic nomination on Saturday and liberal U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont is also running as a Democrat....

He sucks like the rest of the democrats. Total tool.
Just became a Democrat in 2013? Hell, he’s ALWAYS been a DemocRat!
Ping!
If Bloomberg takes the bait, that would be two former RINOs running as Democrats.
That says a lot about the depth and quality of the Democrat bench.
 We cannot exist without you. |
Bring on the debates, they should be howlers.
Not totally. He went to horse shoeing school and learned something useful, unlike most democrats.
Finally ‘comes out of the closet’!
So now, the OTHER small, puny state who delivered
an idiot has produced the idiot’s doppelganger.
Thr State of Delaware brings forth its only gem,
Dover Air Force Base.
The State of Rhode Island, formed by a fallout
among Puritans, has no gem to produce, other
than being the doormat for either Massachusetts
or Connecticut.
Beginning to sound ominous for Benghazi Clinton. Do they know that His Arrogance is about ready to drop the “payback hammer” on her? Of course, it could be that O’Malley and Chaffee are running just to pick up graft campaign money and are not serious about running. If Slow Joe jumps in there you will know that Benghazi is about to be indicted.
With his “Post Partisan” approach, ole Linc is way ahead of the curve...
I don’t know if Trump will run, but if he does I wish he would run in the Democrat primaries and cause trouble for Hillary.
No indictment possible. All the evidence emails are gone with the cleaned up server. Of course MSM is not interested in exposing Clinton corruption. Hillary will be the Rat nominee, I can bet half of my social security check on that.
Ahhhh, good point.
Another Dhimmicrap clown. How much do you think the Clinton Foundation is paying these bozos to run?
The question remains, will Peter Griffin Endorse him?
I know Brian Griffin will.
I wish to goodness Michael Bloomberg would get in the Dem race.
By His Arrogance, I assume you are referring to President Hussein Obama. How will he “drop the payback hammer on her”, and payback for what? You’ve got my interest piqued.
