But that some of these groups (and others) consider Clinton and Obama among the most PROGRESSIVE Senators is the more important thing. Peace. Ben:

However, I thought that such classifactions are now regraded as pretty much pointless, and anyway why is 'liberal' necessarily perceived as 'good'. Something of a reaction to GWB, I guess, but liberals can get you in just as much of the sticky stuff as conservatives. At the end of the day it's nort what they stand for or where their heart is, it is about how effective they are in what they actually do. In the UK, Tony Blair was elected as the fresh breath of liberalism, but turned out be be anything but. It's not what's on the label, it's what's in the can. Ian,
