Senator quits race
By David Espo
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — With a cov
eted committee chairmanship at^
stake, Sen. Bob Smith of New'
Hampshire quit his independent
campaign for president on Thurs
day as he moved toward a likely
return to the Republican Party he
abandoned with a scathing attack
three months ago.
At the same time, the conserva
tive New Hampshire lawmaker re
sponded “yes” when asked
whether he still believes what he
said on leaving the GOP in July.
At a Capitol lawn news confer
ence, Smith said he was folding
his presidential campaign, citing
as a reason the prohibitive cost of
running as an independent. In
politics, he said, “you have to be
prepared to lose.”
Smith said he wouldn’t answer
any questions about his political af
filiation until after weekend funeral
services for Sen. John Chafee, R-R.I.,
who died unexpectedly Sunday.
But he confirmed he had spo
ken in recent weeks with Senate
Majority Leader Trent Lott, GOP
National Chairman Jim Nicholson
and others “about coming back to
the Republican Party. ”
Smith made clear that his con
tacts occurred before Chafee died.
The timing is a sensitive issue
because the Rhode Island Repub
lican was chairman of the Senate
Environment and Public Works
Committee, and Smith is seeking
to inherit the post. If he had re
mained a Republican, the chair
manship would have belonged to
Smith by virtue of seniority. But
Sen. James Inhofe, R-Okla., is now
the panel’s senior Republican, and
he, too, wants the post.
Smith said he would make a for
mal announcement about his
plans Monday. But he did nothing
to discourage speculation that he
would return to the GOP at that
time.
“I know that people in the party
have been reaching out to me,” he
said.
Lott, R-Miss., said he expects
Smith to return to the GOP fold.
Asked whether the senator had
apologized for his comments
about the party, Lott replied,
“Well, no. But I feel like he knows
we were not too pleased with that.
We’re beyond that.”
Nicholson issued a statement
during the day that said of Smith:
“I have come to know him well, to
respect him greatly and I have as
sured him that if he were to return
to our party, he would be wel
comed.”
Smith bolted the GOP last sum
mer when he was faring poorly in
the presidential public opinion
polls. He said then that he would
likely run as a third-party con
tender. He exited with a blistering
speech in the Senate.
“We won the revolution on is
sues. We won the revolution on
principle,” he told his colleagues
then.
“But the desire to stay in power
caused us to start listening to the
pollsters and the consultants
again, who were telling us for
some inexplicable reason that we
need to walk away from issues....
“I want my party to stand for
something,” he said, contending
Republicans routinely ignored
their own party platform on issues
as diverse as abortion, foreign pol
icy and gun control.
Smith’s remarks angered some
fellow Republicans, but he said
Thursday, “It wasn’t personal.”
His departure speech was still
posted on his Senate Web site on
Wednesday, but was removed
overnight.
