Well on a scale of 0 (conservative) to liberal (100) this is how the US senators voted. Sure didnt seem like the Dems were this liberal. Am I missing something?

1. huh thats odd

Dayton is a 75.

2. No, people just tend to assume that the Democrats are voting with Bush,

when most of the time, they aren't.

Daschle, for example. An 80% rating, though to listen to some people on DU, you'd expect it to have been about a 10%.

7. Looks like Kerry wasn't the most liberal senator.

Why would our moral president lie to the American people about that?

on edit: I'm beginning to think he would have said anything to get elected.

8. It's strange. There are states that have 2 Democratic senators w. 80+%...

ADA ratings that vote Republican in presidential races. See West Virginia especially. :crazy:
