The ACU is meaningless. They only count votes that they happen to make, and ignore missed votes. It’s not a reliable indicator of conservatism.

They may not be perfect (what is?) but ACU ratings are far from "meaningless." It's just that kind of exaggeration which is going to lead to national disaster, if it causes people to stay home or vote for some loser 3rd party, letting Obamie the Commie become President.

I would be very surprised if conservative people like Duncan Hunter don't support McCain in the fall. Certainly Fred Thompson will.

It is meaningless because it’s dishonest. I’m not looking for a perfect system, but a system that at least acknowledges that a conservative is not someone who just shows up to vote on 10(8 which the ACU agrees with) of the 25 issues. His real number for last year is 32.

McCain is going to win. You people are wasting your energy with this paranoia. We need to expose McCain at every turn and make it abundantly clear that Americans don’t want his eco-socialist policies.
