Defending Rick Santorum. This was in the Post article about the GOP in-fighting. Deserves a post of its own:
"My caucus would do anything for Senator Santorum," Sen. Lincoln D. Chafee (R-R.I.) said of his colleague. Chafee, who himself faces a tough reelection battle next year, predicted Republicans will increasingly be faced with the choice of propping up Bush or protecting their own. "I think they're going to collide," Chafee said of the two options.Chafee and his caucus will do anything for one of the most anti-gay, anti-women, anti-environment Senators. You can't be a progressive on some issues and offer unqualified support for Santorum. Chafee is not worth it.
