Thanks! -Andy SUBJECT: AP story Reports Speaker-in-waiting Hastert Old ACU Rating DATE: 12.23.98 In the AP story "Hastert a Conservative at Heart," by JENNIFER LOVEN, Associated Press Writer, the ACU rated Speaker-in-waiting Hastert a score of 88 ["....The American Conservative Union gave him an 88...."]. But at http://www.conservative.org/98ratings/IL2ME.htm , of ACU's website, a score of 100 was given for 1998. The 88 score was given in 1997, from what the chart reads. Any idea why AP wrote otherwise --giving last year's info seems misleading?
