An "imperfect measuring stick?" No, Glenn, it is no measuring stick at all.

Unless the subject of the legislation being voted on involves socialism (hint: it doesn't), then whether or not people vote similarly on that legislation says absolutely nothing about whether or not they are all socialists any more than it says whether or not they all like the color blue because blue is the favorite color of one of the Democrats who tends to vote with his party.
