Russ Feingold is widely considered to be not only one of the most progressive Senators we have had in the past 30 years, but he is also the standard bearer for the progressive tradition started in Wisconsin over a century ago.
He led the fight against the USA Patriot Act and the TARP bailout. He was the co-drafter of the McCain-Feingold Campaign finance reform act and now, Wisconsin needs him again.
While there are others who can reverse what happened in Wisconsin under Governor Walker, Senator Feingold has the best chance of defeating him and would energize Wisconsin's progressive base.
Urge him to consider a run on the Democratic ticket to recall and replace Scott Walker.
