Here's a list of those Democrats we can trust to have our backs:

Senate:

Akaka (HI), Bingaman (NM), Boxer (CA), Brown (OH), Byrd (WV), Clinton (NY), Dodd (CT), Durbin (IL), Feingold (WI), Harkin (IA), Inouye (HI), Kennedy (MA), Kerry (MA), Lautenberg (NJ), Levin (MI), Mendendez (NJ), Murray (WA), Obama (IL)*, Reed (RI), Reid (NV), Rockefeller (WV), Sanders (VT), Schumer (NY), Stabenow (MI), Whitehouse (RI) and Wyden (OR)

House:

Abercrombie, Ackerman, Allen, Baldwin, Becerra, Berman, Blumenauer, Corrine Brown, Capps, Capuano, Castor, Clarke, Clay, Cohen, Conyers, Crowley, Davis (IL), DeGette, Ellison, Filner, Frank (MA), Al Green, Grijalva, Gutierrez, Hastings (FL), Hinchey, Hirono, Holt, Honda, Inslee, Jackson-Lee (TX), Jefferson, Johnson (GA), Jones (OH), Kilpatrick, Kucinich, Lee, Lewis (GA), Lofgren, Markey, Matsui, McDermott, McGovern, Meek (FL), Michaud, Miller (NC), Miller, George, Moore (WI), Moran (VA), Nadler, Neal (MA), Olver, Pallone, Payne
Price (NC), Rush, Ryan (OH), Sánchez, Linda T., Schakowsky, Scott (VA), Serrano, Sherman, Slaughter, Solis, Stark, Tierney, Towns, Van Hollen, Velázquez, Wasserman Schultz, Waters, Watson, Watt, Waxman, Weiner, Wexler, Woolsey, Wynn and Yarmuth

Everyone else is a fair-weather friend, at best.

Update: Added Obama to the list. He abstained in the anti-MoveOn bill, but his rationale (it was a protest against a ridiculous piece of legislation) was sound.

And since it wasn't clear, this was regarding the anti-MoveOn resolutions. These are the Democrats who refused to throw netroots activists under the bus while aiding and abetting bullshit Republican efforts to distract on Iraq.
