I am new to blogging, dragged into it by rogue governance, so Guarino is new to me.
I was unaware of what he refers to as "a biennial feature" on his blog that this time around compared self proclaimed socialist, Bernie Sanders, who serves as a Senator in Vermont to Rep. Brad Miller.
It it he compared the the voting records of the two via the American Conservative Union (Conservative) and the Americans for Democratic Action. (Liberal) The two use the same 100 point scale.
- For the ACU, the closer to zero one rates the more liberal one is.
- For the ADA the closer to 100 one is more liberal they are.
...................ACU ...............ADA
...................2009 .............2009
Miller.......... 0................... 100
Sanders...... 12 ..................100
Guarino concludes:
If anything, Congressman Brad Miller's voting record is to the left of Senator Bernie Sanders. Draw your own conclusions; but I think Miller himself is a socialist, just like Sanders.
I agree.
