1. KY Senators
Jim Bunning - Bigoted, feeble-minded, approaching senility, pure rubber stamp.

Mitch McConnell - Bigoted, loudmouthed liar, talking point spewer (pushing hard for the "Constitutional Option", rubber stamp.

2. Lisa Murkowski
former state representative, was appointed to her first term by her father, former Sen. Frank Murkowski, who quit to run for (and win) governor of Alaska. She won her election last year by defeating former guv and Anchorage mayor Tony Knowles in a very close race, with the help of Ted Stevens and some pretty underhanded last-minute negative campaigning. So far Lisa has been fairly moderate, conveniently finding excuses for not voting on critical issues. I noticed she was not present for the vote on Pryor and worked for a compromise on the filibuster issue. She isn't completely sold on Bolton, although my guess is she will vote to confirm him. She (or her office) has been fairly responsive to my numerous letters, which is a good thing.

I'll leave Ted Stevens to somebody else from Alaska.

3. Mel Martinez, Florida
Involved in a scandal to attract minorities in the Jacksonville area to allow pesticides to be tested on their children, brought to light by Barbara Boxer and Bill Nelson. That's about enough, I think. Also, on I-4 billboard in Orlando pictured with the Chimp which proclaims them both "our leaders." Nelson, our other senator (Democrat), is not in the picture, FYI. Oh, and Nelson is up for re-election in 2006, in which his opponent will be Katherine Harris. Someone, please, please help us!
