Price had a liberal rating of 90.2 in 2010, compared to Miller's liberal rating of 74.8, according to the National Journal. Price's rating was also more liberal in previous years as well, according to the National Journal.

Foreign policy-related issues account in large part for Price's higher progressive rating.

Price voted against reauthorization of the Patriot Act, while Miller supported it. Price opposed the National Defense Authorization Act, which extended the war on terror, including the use of military tribunals on terror suspects, while Miller supported a tough House version before switching to a less problematic version. Price has voted to normalize U.S. relations with Cuba, while Miller has not.

Price was also the first member of the North Carolina delegation to co-sponsor the Respect for Marriage act, which repeals the Defense of Marriage Act, which bars federal benefits to same sex couples.

Price leads in poll

A poll taken by Price's pollster Garin-Hart-Yang, leaked in October, showed Price leading Miller by 46 to 25 percent with 29 percent undecided.

I have to admit I was very pro Miller prior to reading this article but the article has made me rethink.

1. I was pro Miller as well.

Guess Price will be the one to run now, so I do not mind as much after reading this.

I really like both of them. Damn that Republican
legislature. I have no idea how their map of re-districting could have been approved. Anybody with a grain of common sense knew it was a joke!

2. Price is good

He rarely disappoints me.
