Steve,
For the most part I agree with you but one line at the bottom of that table seems to sort of contradict what you are saying about their research. If they are taking it off the candidates web sites as they say, and they have not verified it, what makes it any more accurate than what other sites show?

Information is as reported on candidates'
websites and public statements. TPC has not verified claims made.

This document will be updated as new information becomes available.
