So the putative Democrat ticket voted 34.5% of the time on average?

We have one-third of a Senator running for President and Vice-President.

They should refund the taxpayers for all that missed time.

Only 42% missed. In our dumbed down education system that is an A, right?

why? they need something going into the can NOW.

as I posted in another thread, the ad should have a couple of empty chairs on the senate floor, and the calls for "Mr. Kerry . . . . . . . ?" "Mr. Edwards . . . . . . . ?" going unanswered.

Given how far the Dem's drag down the bell curve, I think this is an A+.

42% missed" GOOD! Because if they do win (I will die if they do) then maybe he won't do enough to mess up too much.
LOL With Kerry's missed vote record, and Edwards missed vote record how will anything ever get done?

The sad thing is that not one dollar of the money listed above actually came from the people listed. It came from the regular "Joe" who pays for all sorts of increased costs whenever a lawyer wins a contingency lawsuit.
