U.S. Senate elections, 2010 - Indiana

I don't publish the links to the websites of the candidates, because we should not focus on what they say, but what they did and how they voted in the past, especially at the issues, that are so important to our country’s survival! We don't need politicians who talk a good game but those, who play a good game as well! That's the reason for publishing a link to the congressional votes database, so you can also research how they voted -if you are interested- at other than the crucial issues. The voting in the past shows you, if the particular candidate worked for or against the Constitution and we the people, his constituents.
