Instead of votes for or against, for the Senate, a look needs taken at cloture votes. That's where the real power is, and what gets ignored.

I know Heritage is now scoring cloture votes. I believe Conservative Review is too.

They’re not going to get away with that game anymore. And Cruz has been playing that up. I think he didn’t vote against Lynch on purpose, to show that cloture votes are the REAL votes, and to bring attention to them, as he did with the Obamacare/Shutown cloture vote.
