It's easy for a candidate to claim he would have done this or that on a vote when he doesn't have anything policy wise or politically at stake. I don't give them ANY credit for what they "would have done."

1. What was your opinion on the questions of the day? . . .

2. I wouldn't have a problem if they put up a fight on a losing proposition BUT
not going to trash them for not wasting our time on a futile exercise because we had practically NOTHING to gain by putting up a fight (a few rah rahs from hard cores) but a lot to lose by trashing Democrats after the fact.

3. Better to look at how they actually voted when they served in the Senate
