Russ Feingold

In my opinion, the best senator in the US senate is Russ Feingold. He and Bernie Sanders represent the independent-minded left in the senate. It is really scary that a far-right, tea party-like candidate is leading in the polls Russ Feingold who was first elected in the US senate in 1993. Although I dont live in Wisconsin, I gave money to his campaign. It would be pathetic if Russ Feingold loses to a teabagger, semi-illiterate republican candidate. It would be also a reflection of the total political illiteracy and ignorance of a large percentage of voters here (lets not forget that Bush was elected twice). Lets hope this will not happen and Russ will be re-elected.
