  • I certainly know chafee doesnt support progressive ideas such as health ins, raising minimun wage, and i think bush tax cuts - so if obama is attractive to him maybe he not a libertal aftrr all-in fact if he appeals to so many republicans haow will he be able to propose a liberal agenda and not alienate repugs-eventually policy trumps rhetoric - I voted for Obama (although i feel like i joined a religeous cult) - ifm it turns out i voted for a moderate chafee type, we will have missed our chance and this country will be in bad shape. the bottom line is if obama is a liberal it would be nice to show it even if it pisses off the chafees in the world. and to all obama supporters who will attack me - rermember your guy is supposed to be different forthright a straight shooter - well is a liberal or repug moderate and how much farther right will he go satify these moderate repugs and build his coalition.
