Obama is scheduled to visit Rhode Island on Monday, but according to The Providence Journal, won’t be endorsing anyone.
Fellow Democrat Frank Caprio tells WPRO-AM that Obama can “take his endorsement and shove it.”
Caprio called Obama’s decision “Washington insider politics at its worst.”
The White House on Monday wouldn’t comment on Caprio’s remarks.
One of Caprio’s opponents is former Republican U.S. Sen. Lincoln Chafee (CHAY-fee), running for governor as an independent. Chafee endorsed Obama’s presidential run.
Republican John Robitaille (ROH’-bih-teye) and Moderate Ken Block are also running.
this is funny because caprio is upset and is having sour grapes. its simple and obvious that obama supports chafee but doesnt want to go on record not endorsing the dmeocrat. we all know that chafee , who was always a republican, left the republican party and endorsed obama for president the day before hillary walloped him in a primary .
anyways, of all the news stories to post , why this one makes the vin cut is anyones guess.
This Idiot (Cap-ri-o) should be THANKING Obama (so-sha-list) for not endorsing (ruin-ing) anyone’s campaign.
A fine gentleman like response and an individual which shows class and refinement
A recent poll shows that since this blast at the President, Caprio has fallen from first place to third place in the race, and that President Obama’s candidate, Lincoln Chafee, is now favored to win.
