Thought you might be interested in a few statistics for last year's voting from the American Conservative Union (I know some folks on here don't consider them conservative):

Zell Miller (D-GA) -- 60
Nelson (D-NE) -- 56
John Breaux (D-LA) -- 48

Now for our most liberal Senators from the Republican Party:

Susan Collins (R-ME) -- 64
Olymia Snowe (R-ME) -- 60
Alen Spectre (R-PA) -- 56
John McCain (R-AZ) -- 68

You can now see that only Zell Miller beats Spectre for voting Conservative by 4 points and no one else on the Republican side! And folks on here consider Miller a "true" conservative. Well you and I both know that Miller is not a conservative and this says it all. My two cents worth!

Thanks. By the way, I have also noticed a concerted effort to move men into the democrat and/or libertarian-Reform camp. It just struck me today how many of the posts I am seeing are belligerent and macho, a la Kristol or worse. I have been told repeatedly to go hang out on the picture thread, or mocked as wanting to live in the wonderful neighborhood. I am beginning to think the strategy is to try to make it seem sissified to support Presidient Bush.

That's my gut analysis, for what it's worth. Pass it on if you think it appropriate. Now I am going out to pull weeds, since I can't pull any weeds off this forum. Ha!
