While I am grateful for any additional supporters of Senator Senators, though, please do not choose a candidate based on the behavior of his or her supporters. The two things are not related.
When the time comes to propose, sign or veto a bill, or ask Congress for a war vote (heaven forbid), or negotiate a treaty about the environment, it won't be some pleasant or nasty DUer doing that. It will be the politician. Please make the choice on that basis.
