ACU ratings are a joke. Sucker bait. Coordinated political cover for incumbent Republicans.

But, in any case, you just pulled a bait and switch. You said Senator, not House members.

So what is your touchstone for Congressional ratings?

And given that you condemn the entire national GOP, why not evaluate both Senate and House members?

Power for the sake of conservative governance. Reagan did it, and it can be done again.

You're gathering power up in the name of some non-existent "Reagan,"

Another straw man argument, EV. Rockingham did not say that we need to gather power in Reagan's name, but that just as Reagan did it once, we can do it again.

Rockingham wrote (Post #258):

The House has 31 GOP members with 100 per cent American Conservative Union ratings for 2008, and the Senate has 1 GOP member with a 100 rating and two more with 96 per cent ratings. Most of these GOP Congressmen are notorious for being the no compromises type,

No bait-and-switch, EV. Rockingham clearly mentions House members first.
