Kerry Vote Watch

Apparently, being a Democrat in Massachusetts means never having to say you’re sorry. Kerry is suffering absolutely no backlash from the electorate over his profligate absence from the Senate while he runs for president. The good news is Howard Dean kicked his French ass in the Wisconsin straw poll.

Anyway, the Senate had a full workweek last week, but Kerry only showed up for three days; on one of those days (June 11th) he made the first vote and then disappeared for the next five votes. In all, he missed 10 out of the total 16 Senate votes.

Days worked: 3 (more like 2.2)
Votes missed: 10
