11. Gosh, I don't know
How about showing up to vote against the Kyle Lieberman "War on Iran" bill?

Voting against increased funding for Iraq? Just once?

Leading the filibuster against the amnesty for lawbreaking telecommunications corporations.

Trying to restore our rights and fighting against the "unitary executive".

etc. Basically everything we would actually want Democratic senators to do which never seem to get done.

You know, leading.

Maybe I expect too much from a freshman Senator. But it's not like Hillary is doing any of these things, either.
