He's far more of a DINO than any Republican is a RINO. He's got tons of terrible votes, Bankruptcy, Condi, Gonzales, Iraq war, and so on....

A lot of Democrats voted for those things.

Great, so we have a lot of DINOs. Most voted against the Bankruptcy bill and all but a few voted against Gonzales, though.

I looked him up, and I can't see why he'd be a DINO.  He's one of the more conservative Democrats, sure, but unless he's actively attacking his own party as Zell Miller was, I can't see how he's a DINO.

Well, of course he's much more liberal than anyone with a 96 ACU rating (higher than Frist or Allen).

At least he opposed the Federal Marriage Amendment.

Not like it mattered, only 34 votes stop that.
