..for his primary challenge to her."?

He voted against the resolution to go to war with Iraq...I get that.

However, MOST Democrats voted to go to war with Iraq,
based solely on the Bush-Cheney-Rumsfeld lies about WMDs & Saddam Hussein having a part in the 911 attacks.

How could Hillary Clinton have known that Bush et.al. were lying about Iraq?

Is that the only thing HRC has done that he disagrees with?

As other DUers have stated on this thread,...Chafee is for:
--Free Trade (agreements)
--Elimination of the Estate Tax
--Privatizing Social Security

There is no way in hell that this guy will get the Democratic nomination, IMO
