Would be a good progressive presidential candidate, after being the only Senator to vote against the Patriot Act in 2001.
No more.
First, he voted to certify Ohio's electoral votes. I could have accepted him abstaining, rather than voting against certification. But to vote in favor? Nope.
And now, he's voted for Condoleezza Rice as Secretary of State.
Sorry, Russ, turn in your progressive's wings and halo.
The complete list of the 13 Senators voting no is:
James Jeffords, Mark Dayton, Barbara Boxer, Ted Kennedy, John Kerry, Carl Levin, Robert Byrd, Jack Reed, Richard Durbin, Daniel Akaka, Evan Bayh, Frank Lautenberg and Tom Harkin.
