Wouldn't be surprised if he ran as a Democrat, though I'm not sure he would win a primary.

Also, at this point, not only does he not agree with Republicans on at least 80% of the issues, but he also hates the way the party is, so no way does he run as a Republican again ever.

It depends on if he'd have a strong primary challenger or not.

Rhode Island hasn't had a Democratic governor in 20 years, so it's still not like he'd be a shoe-in.

The elections have all been very close though, kind of like the opposite situation in the state of Washington and Oregon.

Lincoln Chaffee only agreed with the Republicans on the Patriot Act and maybe on School Vouchers.
