"No, the party's not in chaos, but I think what we're about to see is an incredible political chess game that's about to emerge here," says Brickwood Galuteria, state Democratic Party chairman.

"I must confess that I was stunned by announcement," is the statement by U.S. Senator Daniel Inouye, head of the Democrat food chain. That signals old time Democrats are closing ranks behind Akaka.
