Daschle has a "liberal quotient" of 83%

Do you recall Steve Hildebrand, Tom Daschle's campaign manager, bragging in a letter to the Rapid City Journal about a study that has Daschle voting with President Bush 75 percent of the time? That letter got Tom Daschle in trouble with liberals like those at the Buzzflash website, who called for Daschle to step down as minority leader.

What's interesting is that Americans for Democratic Action (ADA) gives Tom Daschle an 83 percent lifetime "liberal quotient." According to ADA, Tom Daschle is even more liberal than George McGovern, who only has a 75 percent lifetime liberal quotient.
