of the voting records of each of them, Paul and Ted I mean. Paul to me was more of the common man's senator. Ted was as well, but his family's wealth kinda put him outta the middle man's bracket actually. Loved him for his dedication to our causes but Paul Wellstone really was the common man's voice. JMHO.
