Lincoln Chafee now a hooker for the Democrats



Follow the Money Trail
“There is no independent governors’ association throwing money around … but
there is a Democratic Governors Association.”
Governor Lincoln Chafee (Whore - Rhode Island)



Comrade Lincoln Chafee has spread his legs for cold hard Democrat cash.  But selling your political body for money is much easier when you don't believe in anything to start with.

Republican-turned-independent Rhode Island Governor Lincoln Chafee has again switched his political affiliation — this time to the Democratic Party.

Chafee served in the U.S. Senate as a Republican from 1999 until losing his re-election bid in 2006 to Democrat Sheldon Whitehouse. He left the GOP in 2007 to become an independent before he was elected governor of the Ocean State in 2010.
"It's not what you know, but
who you blow."
Governor Lincoln Chafee

The governor hasn’t publicly spoken of his switch, but Comrade Obama — in a statement released through the Democratic National Committee — confirmed Wednesday that Chafee has become a fellow Comrade and joined the Socialist Democratic Party reports the Washington Times.

“For nearly 30 years, Linc Chafee has served his beloved Rhode Island as an independent thinker and leader  who’s unafraid to reach across party lines to get things done,” said the president.

“I enjoyed working with Linc when he was a Republican in the United States Senate, and I look forward to continuing that collaboration on the issues that matter not just to the Democratic Party, but to every American.”

Chafee, son of the late U.S. Sen. John Chafee, who also served Rhode Island as governor, told The Associated Press in December that he was considering joining the Democrats to help his chances of winning a second term in the Democratic state.

“There is no independent governors’ association throwing money  around … but there is a Democratic Governors Association,” he said at the time.

From Conservatism to Socialism
From the founding of the Republic, New England was the backbone of the Conservative Federalist Party, the National Republican Party, the Whig Party and later the Republican Party.  But today New England has drifted to become nearly solid Leftist Democrat.  For example, Democrats hold all 21 of New England's Congressional seats.

In Chafee's Rhode Island the GOP has become virtually extinct.  In the 75 member lower house of the legislature only 6 are Republican.  Chafee fleeing the Republican Party is just an act of self preservation.  After hearing the platform of the Republican Party, nearly all the voters of Rhode Island have totally rejected the GOP and opted for Big Government Socialism.
