Palin Cocky Wacko - Former Republican Senator lincoln Chafee called Sarah Palin a cocky wacko and said the John McCain Presidential campaign was lackluster and the VP pick just energized the Democrats.
Former Rhode Island Sen. Lincoln Chafee was known for keeping a low-key profile on Capitol Hill, but the Republican-turned-Independent is making waves with his exceedingly blunt comments on Republican VP candidate Sarah Palin: She’s a “cocky wacko,” he told a Washington think tank earlier this week.
Chafee, who was the lone Senate Republican to vote against the Iraq war and who earlier this year endorsed Barack Obama’s White House bid, told an audience at the New America Foundation in Washington D.C. Tuesday that Palin’s selection has energized Obama backers.
“People were coming into my office, phone calls were flooding in, e-mails were coming in, ‘I just sent money to Obama, I couldn’t sleep last night’ — from the left. To see this cocky wacko up there,” Chafee said.
He also described McCain’s candidacy as “lackluster” and described the selection of Palin as a throwing “this firestorm, this tornado, into the whole presidential election.”
And that’s the latest news on ex-Republican Senator Lincoln Chafee calling Sarah Palin Cocky Wacko.
