The NAACP has ranked all of our leaders in both the Senate and House. 98% of the Democrats got passing grades. Only 2% of the Republicans passed. Lincoln Chafee received the highest grade for a Republican, with a C. Jack Reed got an A, as did Patrick Kennedy and James Langevin.

According to the NAACP’S mid-term report for the 109th Congress, all but one of the 231 Republicans in the U. S. House of Representatives got an F. The exception was Rep. Christopher Shays of Connecticut, who earned a D. No House Republicans got Bs or Cs.

In the Senate, 51 of the 55 Republicans earned Fs. Lincoln Chafee of Rhode Island was the only one to get a C, the top grade among GOP members. Olympia J. Snowe and Susan Collins, both of Maine, and Mike DeWine of Ohio, all received Ds. Sen. Jim Jeffords of Vermont, an Independent, got a C.
