Shocker - Lincoln Chafee (RI) Joins Democrat Party
|
What took you so long, Lincoln?
Republicans never had much use for Lincoln Chafee. During his seven-plus years as a U.S. senator GOP colleagues regularly derided and mocked his moderation. After losing his Senate seat in the 2006 Democratic landslide Chafee came back four years later to claim the governorship as an independent.
Now Chafee's political journey is complete. He's joining the Democratic Party, and just in time for his 2014 reelection bid.
The move isn't altogether surprising. Chafee of late has veered on a left-leaning course. He vocally supported a gay marriage bill moving through the Rhode Island legislature, and signed it on the capitol steps just minutes after final passage.
