Doesn't matter. They vote with the dems when they can. Their electorate are a bit politically challeneged. It is the party that is important. For almost 100 years the Democrats have been the party that worked to effect freedomn and justice for all. Just look at history from Hoover, through Nixon to Bush. From the John Birch society and Joe Macarthy to the Tea Party nut cases. From the New Deal, to ending segregation to protecting the environment to fighting for the gay community it was always the Democrats that lead the way. You look where justice has prevailed thoughout the last century, you will find is was always the Democrats and more specifically the liberals who were fighting for it.

Chinu----Although I thought so at first too I'm now wondering if Nelson and Testa did us a favor in the long term? They voted nay because of pressure back home. They want to stay in office...and we need them to stay in office....I heard there are about 30 senators up for reelection....it will be grueling.... Frightens me when I think of Ds losing the Senate.... But then how do you explain the wimpy Democratic senators Nelson and Tetter voting against Obama's jobs bill today.
