Russ Feingold has big lead in Wisconsin

[RussBLib]

This is awesome news. Russ is fantastic, and I think he will be even better for having lost his seat awhile back. Looks like the Dems will pick up at least THIS Senate seat. Haven't looked too closely at the other match-ups yet.

Russ Feingold has a big lead in a Marquette University Law School poll to regain his U.S. Senate seat.

1. Bring Back Russ!

This is a race I can get behind in 2016. I'm right next door to Wisconsin.

[Purveyor]

2. Good to hear. Thanks for posting. eom

[DFW]

3. This is very encouraging!!!!!!!!

Not just for me, but for my friendly cheesehead friends, including my brother-in-law and John Nichols, not to mention all the Wisconsin DUers. Keep the momentum up and let's retire Johnson by burying him so deeply, he'll only run for the fridge in the future.

4. Excellent news!

[Scuba]

5. This despite non-stop attack ads on TV and radio here.

AFP really, really wants to keep Sunspot Johnson in the Senate.

[Schema Thing]

6. Thanks - this Texan will donate to Russ now :)

[Scuba]

7. Thank you Schema Thing!!!!

8. That is one I am counting on.

I think Tammy Duckworth will take Illinois, too.

At least a couple of pickups!

[No Vested Interest]

10. Yeah! Go Tammy D. nt

[No Vested Interest]

9. Gotta make sure to get out the vote! nt

11. One of the best. Hope he wins.

We need him.

[valerief]

12. Wonderful. Love Russ!!!! nt

[totodeinhere]

13. I never understood why he lost last time. But it would be excellent to have him

back.

[Jimbo S]

17. All the planets aligned

Feingold was vulnerable after his ACA vote. Johnson had momentum coming out of the primary. Non-Presidential election year. 2010 was the year of the Tea Party.

14. Thanks for the good news.

[merrily]

15. Great!

[Dont call me Shirley]

16. +1 for Russ.

[SoapBox]

18. I didn't even know he was running.

Doh!

[R. P. McMurphy]

19. He's a good man.

Would love to see him back in the Senate.

[LostOne4Ever]

20. K&R For Russ! Nt

[WillParkinson]

21. Go, Russ!

Bring some sanity back here.

[bbgrunt]

22. Luv Russ! wish I still lived there to vote for him!

[coolepairc]

23. Hopefully...

...the nightmare will soon be over in WI. Great news! Not sure what happened with WI for a while now, it's been quite distressing. UW-M (my alma mater) used to be one of the most progressive campuses in the country, back in the day. Go Russ! Go Badgers!

24. Russ is awesome. Ron is a loser.

He is so out of touch, unavailable, and says dumb stuff.

[Fred Sanders]

25. Allan Colmes has remained true to liberalism, he was the first to out Fox, on Fox.

[Agnosticsherbet]

26. Good to hear.

[Fairgo]

27. What's shocking...

...36% still voting for republicans after the state-rape that has been the Walker Years. never under-estimate the power of ignorance and want.

[Smarmie Doofus]

28. Never try to predict Wisconsin.

Still.... that's encouraging.

[dmr]

29. This is good news.

Seriously, very good news. One of my favorite senators.
