2. Boxer -- for her courage both in committee and on the floor
The only one to stand up against election fraud ... Now THAT took guts. She's got my vote forever.

6. Carl Levin
Regardless of what the purer-than-thou bashers here have to say.
John
Although I'll admit there are some other good choices here.

13. Why did he vote yes on DOMA?
Are Minnesotans really that bigoted?

Did you mean Durbin?

I'll give Durbin my vote simply out of constituent loyalty. :D

9. Boxer.
She's the ONLY one who stood against the election results. If we don't have free and fair elections, we don't have democracy.

10. I voted other because I think it Joe Biden.
We need all different kinds of Senators with different personalities and methods of doing their job.

I love Boxer, and we need several more like her. I love Kennedy, who is similar in MO to Barbara, but I like Biden because he IS more moderate, and uses common sense when he speaks. He's forceful enough to really give 'em hell when he gets aggrivated.

14. Ms Boxer, with Mr Byrd (the soul of the senate) a close second
IMHO those are about the only two in the senate worth much of anything. Obama is worth watching.
