So Ciro gets sued for not paying his bills and you don't run with that, but you single out Cuellar when he's "13th"??? Not first, not fifth, not in the top 10--13th??? Hardly a headline or newsworthy.
At least your evenhanded with your coverage.

The above link for "conservative scores" is for the Senate, not the House. Please correct the link when you get a chance. Thanks in advance!
