I don't want to go through this, but I'll just say that I've become a big Amy Klobuchar fan.

Not looking at voting records, the only ones that have really made names for themselves are Sanders, McCaskill, and Corker to an extent.

Pretty lame group overall.

I was thinking the same thing.  What has anyone in that crew even accomplished?  Hell, I think this is the first time I have even heard Cardin's name since he was elected.

So all of you for the most part rated these Senators completely along partisan lines.  How many of you can actually justify your ratings with actual examples as to why they deserve an A or an F or what ever in between?

Jim Webb crafted the new GI bill and has undertaken prison reform.

And that's putting it nicely. Bobby doesn't hold a candle to his freedom fighting father.
