The Party of Lincoln is not the party of Lincoln Chafee, evidentally, who has endorsed... Obama!?!
The Republican party has become so ideologically pure and dogmatically "conservative" (not Goldwater, mind you) that is has that near extinct beast, the liberal Republican, switching sides.
Because when you fight a war against "extremists", you have to be an extremist as well.
Way to think it through.
Chafee was the only R to vote against the war resolution. After his endorsement he said he felt it was important to back someone who was against the war from the beginning.
