Huh

I didn’t see any little “R”s behind any of the names here…

Funny. I just checked the 11 Best Reps and still no little “R”s following the names…

Where’s the so-called change in the GOP that some spew on here?!? They’re being awfully quiet…

@Jorval: ThinkProgress noted the best R’s were Susan Collins (R-ME) and Mark Kirk (R-IL) who each sponsored 3 pieces of legislation I believe. Yeah, pretty sad.

Dianne Feinstein, the senior United States Senator from California, has been pro Gay since 1961 when she worked to end housing discrimination in San Francisco. It would be hard to beat her track record.

@Jorval: Interesting assumption there, that for “improved” to be true, “among the 11 best” must also be true.

Not a logical assumption by any stretch, but an interesting one.

Oh NJ. Two of the top 11 senators but we can’t get married because our governor is a prick.
