Title: Former GOP Sen. Lincoln Chafee: Sarah Palin a 'Cocky Whacko'
Post by: formerlurker on September 11, 2008, 05:10:54 PM: Former GOP Sen. Lincoln Chafee: Sarah Palin a 'Cocky Whacko'

PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) -- Former Rhode Island Republican Sen. Lincoln Chafee has called vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin a "cocky whacko" and said her selection as John McCain's running mate has energized supporters of Democrat Barack Obama.

Chafee left the Republican Party last year after losing his bid for re-election and now supports Obama. He told an audience Tuesday at the New America Foundation in Washington the Alaska governor has revived a "lackluster McCain candidacy."

"They've just thrown this firestorm, this tornado, into the whole presidential election," Chafee said in response to an audience member's question about whether the Obama campaign should worry about Palin's presence in the race.
