I'd like to pile on to the... (none / 1)

..."Feingold for president" comments.
Feingold is unique in that he is a true liberal, yet he doesn't annoy Middle America the way people like Boxer, Kennedy, or Kucinich sometimes do. He isn't shrill-he is a soft spoken every man. Plus, he is so clean and corruption-free he squeaks when he walks. Even though he is a liberal, he is probably the strongest canidate in a general election for president amoungst the bunch of Democratic possibilities. It will be impossibily hard to Swiftie him. He's willing to stand up for what he believes in, even if he is all alone, as his Patriot Act vote shows.

- Feingold for Vice President??? (none / 1)
  
  Here's my reasoning. The GOP keeps winning with VP candidates that come out fighting and rally the base. Or in the case of Dan Quail, candidates that are even less qualified than the top of the ticket.
  Democrats have gone the opposite direction, always picking VPs that "balance" (i.e., water down) the ticket. I, for one, used to think that was smart. But the track record is ba-a-a-a-a-d.
  Actually, Russ would be a great POTUS, but on the off chance that the powers that be make the difficult...Feingold for VP!
