Cream of the crop? Obviously Blackburn!


The League of Conservation Voters has released its 2008 Scorecard...
---
WASHINGTON, D.C. – For 30 years, the non-partisan LCV Scorecard has been the nationally accepted yardstick used to gauge how members of Congress voted on key energy and environmental issues.

Rankings for Tennessee's delegation:

Lamar Alexander (REP) TN --- 18%
Bob Corker (REP) TN --- 27%

Marsha Blackburn (REP) TN-7 --- 0%
Stephen Cohen (DEM) TN-9 --- 100%
Jim Cooper (DEM) TN-5 --- 100%
David Davis (REP) TN-1 --- 0%
Lincoln Davis (DEM) TN-4 --- 85%
John Duncan (REP) TN-2 --- 8%
Bart Gordon (DEM) TN-6 --- 85%
John Tanner (DEM) TN-8 --- 85%
Zach Wamp (REP) TN-3 ---15%

Yes, David Davis also scored a big, fat zero. However, he was ousted by fellow Republicans in the TN-01 primary in favor of Phil Roe, a more environmentally-friendly right-winger (oxymoron, I think).

TN-07... still draggin' our feet!
