I'm not sure I completely understand this, but the writer claims that his charts prove that the Senate votes almost purely on economic considerations, thus all the talk of social issues is just noise because it never actually flows through the legislative agenda.

Thanks for the link.

The chart and model aren't mine; I took them from the work of a community of political scientists.

If somebody wants to chase them down they can click thru the links in my posting.
