Whatever will the GOP do without Lincoln Chafee?

. . .Chafee said he disaffiliated from the party ?in June or July,? making him an unaffiliated voter. He did so quietly, and until yesterday, he said, ?No one?s asked me about it.? He said he made the move because ?I want my affiliation to accurately reflect my status.?

. . .Yesterday, he criticized Republican leaders for abandoning fiscal conservatism, once a mainstay of Republican politics, by passing tax cuts without spending cuts to balance the resulting loss of revenue.

What wisdom! How will we survive without Chafee’s ignorance of the Laffer Curve? Elizabeth Dole, as head of the National Republican Senatorial Committee, must be so proud of taking the unusual step of taking sides in a Republican primary on behalf of this clown.
