From last nite’s tweetfest:
#DemDebate #nhpolitics #Grok how not to be 3rd Obama term, Chafee? Not being coherent is a great start-situation normal for Linc

And Lincoln Chafee, pretty much, was incoherent. Now add this:
“I came into the race knowing the reality that Secretary [Hillary] Clinton was going to take all the money essentially,” Chafee said Wednesday in an awkward interview with CNN’s Wolf Blitzer. “And if there was an insurgent candidate, there might be an opportunity to raise some money. Senator [Bernie Sanders, I-Vt.] is that insurgent candidate raising the money. But for the rest of us, it’s very difficult. I’m not raising much money. But I do have a budget and I’m living within it.”
He admitted that his campaign has raised only $30,000.
Incoherent and broke. Why was he on that stage last night – the main event? I’m betting that ALL of the R candidates have raised more than $30K – but they’ve been relegated to the kiddie table debate?
$30K – has not the thought of “what, no support?” been chained to another one of “what the heck am I doing here”? Or is he just pining for publicity? A last lingering shot at the spotlight?
