Thanks for the link. He's good on most things and others not sure I like how he voted.

• Voted YES on banning "soft money" contributions and restricting issue ads. (Mar 2002) [?]
• Voted YES on require photo ID (not just signature) for voter registration. (Feb 2002) [GOOD]
• Voted YES on banning campaign donations from unions & corporations. (Apr 2001) [GOOD]
• Voted YES on funding for National Endowment for the Arts. (Aug 1999) [NOT GOOD]
• Voted YES on favoring 1997 McCain-Feingold overhaul of campaign finance. (Oct 1997) [SUCKERED?]

  It's hard to tell where he'd stand today on immigration. If he's for amnesty by whatever name they want to call it these days that is not good in my book.

• Voted YES on allowing more foreign workers into the US for farm work. (Jul 1998) [WHY?]
• Voted YES on visas for skilled workers. (May 1998)
• Voted YES on limit welfare for immigrants. (Jun 1997)
