Would it make you like him more or less?
Former Rhode Island governor Lincoln Chafee stole our hearts during Tuesday evening’s Democratic debate as a wholly unelectable, charmingly unprepared bird of a man.
He had a number of rough moments over the course of the evening (and not much else), like when he justified his Glass-Steagall vote with the info that he didn’t really know how to be a senator at the time, or when he condemned Hillary Clinton for her private email server and she flat-out ignored him and people applauded and laughed.
I think if you, like me, love Chafee as a man and an ostrich (but not as a politician, God no), you’re probably feeling a little down today. But you know what I bet could turn your frown into a sweet, small, moist smile? Pictures of autumnal objects and scenes with Chafee’s signature center-part.
Here are a few:
A spooky Jack-O-Lantern rendered soft.
Scarecrow? More like friend-crow.
One of these would really hit the spot.
Gronk, an American icon, somehow better.
A sumptuous Thanksgiving Turkee.
Love to leaf peep when the time is right.
A delicious pumpkin-flavored beverage.
A beautiful American family.
Feeling better yet? I am :).
