Thanks! Although my vote isn't going to exactly do much for the Democrats, since I'm voting for a Republican for senator. I thought for a long time about whether I should vote my conscience or vote so it would help the Democrats take congress. I decided I had to go with the conscience thing. *points to icon*
Chafee's good for the environment and a lot of other things. I've been really happy with him as my Senator, and I can't not vote for him.
He's a Republican in name only. He's more of an independent, which IMO we need in the Senate. He's the only Republican Senator to vote against the war in Iraq. Which says a lot for him. He's really the heart of what Rhode Island stands for, to me. Check out his website.
*sigh* This voting for Senator thing is grueling. Sometimes I think you guys have it easier not having to do that (at least in the Senate), but then I think, hmm. I kind of like having a say in it. Unfortunately a lot of other people feel the same way who don't necessarily have the same political opinions as I do.
