(12,008 posts)I guess it was just a bunch of suckers who voted for Whitehouse over Chafee, because Chafee is just SO FUCKING AWESOME. You realize this man's entire political career is recent history and... oh, what's this?! We've got the fucking internet.
"Known for often disagreeing with the Republican Party leadership, Chafee says he did not cast his ballot for President George W. Bush in the 2004 election, instead choosing to write in former president George H. W. Bush as a nod to the Republican Party of his father."
That's a dyed-in-the-wool fucking liberal right there!! What liberal wouldn't rather have a president George H.W. Bush over John Kerry?! I can't think of any. I remember in that election thinking to myself, "I don't want to vote for W, but Kerry just isn't as awesome and liberal as George H.W. Bush. I'll just write that name in there." That was the general feeling among liberals at that time, wasn't it?
That's just how good ol' liberal Chaffee does it. He's that type of traditional liberal that has run in every single election he's ever been in in his life as a Republican. That last one he ran in as a Republican, he finally lost to a Democrat, so he left the party so that he could run against a Democrat again in the next one.
