Updating Rhode Island

Wow! In a filing yesterday, it was revealed that the NRSC has dumped $536,420.41 into the Rhode Island primary for Lincoln Chafee to defeat a fellow republican. The result? Chafee is not likely to survive the primary challenge, and his slayer, Steve Laffey is a long shot to win the general election. Thanks for finally giving up the seat guys, and throwing some cash down the sewer as well.
