Welcome to Murphy Watch

This site is dedicated to chronicling the votes of Patrick Murphy a self described Blue Dog "Conservative Democrat."  Already Mr. Murphy has had one of the most partisan voting records of any Congressman from Bucks County in decades.  While he uses this label as a conservative or moderate Democrat his voting record does not reflect an independent voting record that citizens of the 8th Congressional District have come to expect. In 2007 the National Taxpayers Union gave Murphy a grade of an F and placed him in their "Big Spender" category.  As of March 2009 Murphy had a 99% party unity score voting with Nancy Pelosi 99% of the time.
