Those are Democrats. That is the problem.

I know, don't worry, I intend to remain a Green. However, if they can throw these Senators out in the caucuses or primaries, or if they pass IRV in the states they control, I think I would owe it to them to take another look.
Some on the list surprised me. I thought the reps in Hawaii were pretty liberal.
Nice blog.
Kudos for listing "Crossing the Rubicon"; definitely one of the better books I've read in a long time.
Thanks, Silvester! Sheryl, looks like the one closest to you is Mary Landrieu of Louisiana, and closest to me is Herb Kohl of Wisconsin.
