No, Kerry was extremely successful in casting himself as a moderate. That's how the biggest liberal in the Senate got 48% of the vote.

Are you trying to tell me that Boxer and Feingold are both more conservative than Kerry?

On foreign policy and taxes, yes.

So that's why they strongly opposed the war (along with 20 or so other Senators) that Bush voted for?

As for taxes, how are their voting records differently? Boxer, Feingold, along with Kerry and probably 40 other Senators voted against every Bush tax cut.

I'm pretty sure Bush was not a senator. Could be wrong.

Kerry voted for it, but then he turned around and starting bashing it. Plus, he opposed Gulf War I. I question his sanity over that vote.

Boxer is nutty, but her ideology isn't any farther left than Kerry.

John Kerry supports giving violent felons the right to vote in federal elections, and I believe is cosponsoring a bill for de facto DC statehood.

I meant Kerry not Bush. Boxer was the only one to contest the election. Feingold was the only one to vote against the Patriot Act.
