Idiot....I would NEVER go for Buchanan....he's a NUT!! But the RNC pushing CHAFEE who is BEHIND is ridiculous... Laffey is a MUCH better Repoublican, I'll go with him.
from rasmussen polling
Oh and the RNC IS SMART TO SUPPORT CHAFFEE OVER LAFFEY
THE IDIOTS ARE THE FREEPERS.
September 3, 2006
Democrat Sheldon Whitehouse Rhode Island Senator Lincoln Chafee (R ) has pulled to within two points of challenger Sheldon Whitehouse in his bid for re-election. The latest Rasmussen Reports poll in Rhode Island shows Whitehouse earning support from 44% of voters while Chafee attracts 42% (see crosstabs). Whitehouse had a six point lead last month.
Based upon this poll we are shifting the Rhode Island Senate race from “Leans Democrat” to “Toss-Up” in our Senate Balance of Power ratings. Rhode Island is the fifth race in the Toss-Up category.
Though he has his sights set on Whitehouse, Chafee must first face off against his primary challenger, Cranston Mayor Stephen Laffey. The Providence Journal reports that Chafee has outspent Laffey $2.85 million to $1.18 million thus far as they head toward the September 12 showdown. The Whitehouse campaign will be cheering for Laffey on primary night, as the current poll shows Whitehouse leading that potential head-to-head contest 58% to 31%.
If Laffey defeats Chafee in the Republican Primary, this race will immediately be shifted to the Democrats column in our Senate Balance of Power ratings.

Pure pro-RINO spin on your part.
Experience.
orry...I just don't buy it....Chaffee will NOT win in November anyway.
The New York Times! Enough Said!
A new FRino campaign slogan is born.
Wow! You are the clever one.
