Those are valid points, but you might be surprised at how some of these Republicans get a rating as low as 50%.

In Barletta's case, for example, he voted to give Barack Obama "fast-track" authority to negotiate trade deals. He also voted for every health care and transportation spending bill that Heritage opposed. He is apparently a big-government Republican in every way.

“In Barletta’s case, for example, he voted to give Barack Obama “fast-track” authority to negotiate trade deals. “

Every orthodox Republican since 1980 has supported “fast track”, no matter who POTUS was at the time. It would have increased Barlettas score.

It’s one of the reasons the Republican Party ain’t worth a sh!t for nothin’.

I don’t think I would have done much better than Barletta, but for different reasons.

It reads like an Orthodox Republican scorecard in many cases.

He DEFINITELY has some important misses here. Even for an Economic Nationalist.
