3. POverty, choice, trade, Iraq, ... Many, many issues on which they differ

and dont forget that Brown would vote for Reid and be one of the most progressive members of the senate, even if his vote on this issue was totally wrong (but not necessarily politically wrong).

8. ANYONE who votes for torture is not "progressive"

If you live in Ohio, you gotta do what you gotta do - but I really, really miss Paul Hackett. It's a shame Chuck Schumer pressured Hackett to drop out of the primary race.

10. Do you even know what Hackett would have done if he had been in the

same situation? It is always so easy to criticize when you do not have to vote.

14. Here's how my Senate candidate, Barbara Ann Radnofsky, responded

The Senate majority and my opponent wrongly and massively changed American history by permitting coerced confessions, torture, and convictions based on such testimony. My opponent's embrace of perjury as a 'technicality' was a predictor that she would vote to further damage the stature and reputation of the United States of America.

We must protect our troops who could become POWs, subject to torture tactics embraced by my opponent. She has rubberstamped dangerous administration policies 95.6% of the time. Her statements and her vote yesterday threaten every Texan, every American, and our values.

Ordinary men and women, like my father and the fellow soldiers who saved his life as a POW, also saved the world for democracy in World War II. Massive wrongdoing and human experimentation and torture were exposed, and the world condemned and rejected the wrongdoing. Everyone who values the lives of our service men and women and the democracy in which we live should reject perjury, coerced confessions, and torture.

So, yes, I have to vote. I have to vote for Barbara Ann Radnofsky to replace Republican rubber-stamp Kay Bailey Hutchison, who voted for the torture bill.

What I would like to see Sherrod Brown do now is tell his fellow Ohioans: "I voted for this bill because I was convinced it was in the best interests of the American people to do so. But I now realize that voting for the bill was a serious mistake. I am willing to acknowledge my own mistakes. Senator DeWine, on the other hand, never has and never will."
