wow, awesome

yeah, good question

[FrankRep]

The Freedom Index (http://www.thenewamerican.com/files/Freedom_Index_111-3.pdf) scores him at: 60% Constitutional -- 47% Overall


Bobby Bright is better than most Democrats, but overall he scores poorly.

[Bergie Bergeron]

Obviously he's not one of us but he'd make a good neo-con small govt republican sheep.

[low preference guy]

he voted against health care reform and all bailouts. if i had the chance, i'd vote for him.

[Mr.Magnanimous]

What the video doesn't tell you is that he voted YES on $192B additional anti-recession stimulus spending.

[Bergie Bergeron]

He probably didn't know any better.

[Mr.Magnanimous]

Voted YES on $40B for green public schools. Voted YES on $2 billion more for Cash for Clunkers program. Support our troops continued involvement in Iraq. Sanctions on Iran to end nuclear program.

Now I realize that at this point I'm just nitpicking, and compared to other dems, he's a relatively good candidate, but I might be more inclined to support someone else.
