He voted conservative on 17 of the 22 issues that the ACU graded all Senators on, and his score for 2010 was 74.

He voted liberal on Fannie Mae overhaul, Auditing the Fed, Financial Regulatory Overhaul, Food Safety, Dont Ask Dont Tell, Nuclear Arms Treaty.

He voted conservative on Earmark Moratorium, DC School Choice, Repealing Obamacare, Immigrant Health Care, Federal Salary Freeze, Border Fence, Greenhouse Gas Regulation, Estate Tax Repeal, Supporting Arizona’s Immigration Law, Kagan Nomination, Union Elections, DREAM Act.

It seems he has voted the conservative route consistently on immigration and judges. He has voted conservative on restraining government spending and taxes, but has voted liberally on financial regulations.

The Nuclear Arms bothers me the most of his liberal votes, and the gay military one was very public, but his record is pretty reliable on administrative issues (judges, spending/taxes, Fed pay) as well as immigration and reigning in the reach of government.
