I am new to the blogging world and wrote up a little piece critiquing Time's means of evaluation. I'd be curious as to any thoughts you might have on what I've written, and what criteria you think should be used when creating such a list. You can see my thoughts on my blog at the address I've submitted, if you're interested. If not, that's okay too.jonny applenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3709087743016851805.post-8665664186544679212006-04-17T09:51:12.000-05:002006-04-17T09:51:12.000-05:00Norm Coleman is a Republican, the correction neede...Norm Coleman is a Republican, the correction needed in Tom's blog and embarrassingly in my response.Jason Anoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3709087743016851805.post-26661135793786548422006-04-17T09:49:06.000-05:002006-04-17T09:49:06.000-05:00Tom Coburn is also my favorite senator (Ron Paul i...Tom Coburn is also my favorite senator (Ron Paul is my favorite member of congress).<br><br>Norm Coleman is a Democrat (though I wouldn't have commented if you put a D by the three "republicans" in the 5 worst category).<br><br>I would bump Brownback and Cornyn up the list.<br><br>As for worst my list would include Chuck Schumer as in tumor and Arlan Specter both of whom are responsible for setbacks to the constitution and government which America may never recover.
