National Review Endorses Laffey

This is the first endorsement for Steve Laffey, the conservative, Republican challenger to Lincoln Chaffee for Senate in 2006.

" The worst possible outcome is only
that Rhode Islanders will trade a virtual Democrat
for a real one. "

The Chaffee campaign responds. Chaffee, through a spokesman, says that Laffey is no conservative but fails to argue that he is.

In contrast, Senator Chafee represents a winning blend of fiscal conservatism, traditional Republican values, and progressive ideals.

You judge. Anchor Rising has the details and be sure to look at the comments from Rhode Islanders.
