Gotta admit I love the fact "Linc Chaffee" (I think his RINO daddy said he named him after Abraham Lincoln) is now a washed up politician. Last I heard he tried to get the Libertarian nomination for President (he's now been a RINO, Independent, RAT, AND Libertarian) and was (quite justifiably) laughed out the door.

Given how far left the state has gone, they actually have some decent politicians, the most recent being Don Carcieri. I wish Stephen Laffey would make a comeback, he is still politically active in the private sector. The fools who voted for Chaffee over Laffey in the primary because Missing Linc was "electable" no doubt have buyers remorse over that.

Interesting trivia: Chaffee's successor in the Senate, Sheldon Whitehouse, is one of the FEW RATS who is on record OPPOSING Statehood for D.C. So "moderate" Chaffee might have been even worse than Whitehouse!
