3. Mine's a Dino
And would be fine if only his religion (Catholic) didn't tell him that women and gays are inferior to straight males (of any color.) He votes accordingly.

I'm talking about Langevin of RI, BTW.

6. Gerlach - not one of the most conservative Republics
But I'm surprised he's over 50% on anything, and even close to 50% on foreign policy. The guy is pretty much lockstep on Iraq.

I wonder where they get Kucinich in the 70s on economic matters? I thought that might be social, but not economic.

7. My Congresscritter is Keith Ellison
so he's not on the 2006 list. But I expect he'll show up near the top next time.

8. Barbara Lee
I'm surprised she's only #6. I would expect her to be #1. She's amazing.
