"In 2000, he earned an 85 percent rating from the liberal Americans for Democratic Action. That year Boxer [California Democrat] got the same rating and Kennedy [Massachusetts Democrat] earned 90 percent approval.

Tom Harkin of Iowa, a well-established liberal. On the conservative side, Sen. Conrad Burns of Montana, at 89 percent lifetime, and Senator Bob Smith of New Hampshire, at 92 percent over his career, are about as conservative as Edwards is liberal...
