We rated each current Member of Congress on 15 criteria that demonstrated power and the ability to be effective in Congress in 2005. This resulted in a Power Score that ranked members for overall power in each chamber of Congress.
TOPICS:
KEYWORDS: 109th; bogus; congress; govwatch; house; power; senate; ushouse; ussenate

My blithering idiot congress critter is #432. Which is much higher than she can count.
Her son is named "Supreme Solar Allah" -- that should say it all.

If he's so powerful, why don't we ever hear from him?

#7 in the Senate. I expected McConnell would easily make the top ten. He seems to be one of those sleepers: you never really hear a whole lot about him, but when he does move things happen.

Has Supreme Solar Allah been released from jail yet?
It's gotta hurt if your Congressman has less power than every non-voting delegate from a US territory. In Ms. Moore's case, that might be a good thing.

People I'd call relatively good conservatives hold just four of the top spots in the Senate list. Note Pubs are in last place on both lists.

Some quick Excel arithmetic reveals that R's have 61% of power in Senate and 67% of power in House. With that much "power," why can't they govern like R's instead of damn D's?

"Her son is named "Supreme Solar Allah" -- that should say it all."
I wonder what his nick name is? Top Flaming @ss comes to mind - but I should not be critical of one who's parent saddled him with such a name - shame on me.
Idiot B*tch.

Figures John Murtha would be "lucky #13". He's bad luck all around!!

Well if you get down to basics what this actually means is who holds the power on marquee committees and sub-committes. It really doesn't mean much in the way of actual effectiveness.

Interesting I have the top guy in the Senate, but one of the bottom-dwellers for the House at #404.
