Johnson was without a doubt the most liberal Southern Senator in 1960.  The only others who even occasionally voted liberally on domestic issues were Ralph Yarborough, Lister Hill, Al Gore, and Estes Kefauver.

Gore and Kefauver were both to Johnson's left.

They were more outspoken, but ultimately not ideologically to Johnson's left.
