very interesting to compare their voting records. Great point.
on edit... I looked briefly at their voting records And they are about as diametrically opposed as they could be.
Talk about pandering to the max... actually, his answer was a downright lie to the question asked. who is the wisest person you would rely on for guidance in your administration.
