Turns out that Hillary may have been the more liberal senator, contrary to what the netroots has told us over the past few months.

Well, I must say that this vote is a surprise. I'm not sure what the rationale behind Clinton voting more reasonably than Obama is. Hell, even McCain supported the fillibuster (by not showing up).

Of course anyone who believed that ranking of Obama as the most liberal Senator is seriously brain-damaged.

Hillary seems like more of a pragmatic liberal.

Who the hell knows where Obama stands.

He stands wherever his chances of being elected are higher.

Which, oddly, was a common description of Hillary during the primaries and one of the reasons why many Obama supporters decided to vote for Obama over Hillary.

Hilarious to say the least.
