Funny how he didn’t have too much of a problem with it just the other day.

Rep. Christopher Shays said todayy he will not seek another congressional term unless House Republican leaders support his bid for the job of top GOP member of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee.

He is meeting with leaders and other key members now.

If they do not give him significant backing “I’m absolutely not going to run,” said Shays, who said he is giving no one any deadlines.
Even if he runs and wins, and somehow gets denied the top Republican spot anyway in 2009, “I will resign,” Shays said.

Shocking news: Lincoln Chafee has “quit” the Republican party…

I read this and thought what I’m sure other Republicans thought when they saw the news to: That he’d left the Republican party long ago, just not ‘officially.’
