Russ Feingold D WI is being promoted by Progressive as the Tea Party Candidate!

Pro-gun, anti-bank, and a staunch defender of civil liberties, Russ Feingold should appeal to the Tea Party crowd.

Feingold is trailing by double digits.

Tea Partiers aren’t “anti-bank.”

We’re anti-BAILOUT. Big difference.

That IS funny. Russ Feingold is PRO-gun rights?

His past NRA Grades in election years are as follows:

1998 - F
2004 - D

"I think (our) grades speak for themselves," says Andrew Arulanandam, public affairs director for the NRA, the most powerful gun rights lobby in the country. "The fact he was F-rated in '98 and D-rated in '04, to most people, it's pretty self-explanatory."

It is funny, but phony Tea Party candidates have been a problem in Florida, Nevada and elsewhere.

Absolutely HUGE difference especially after knowing how the big banks all paid off obama though I wouldn’t bank at those banks that did so personally.

If Russ Feingold, Harry Reid, Patty Murray and Babs “call me Senator” Boxer go, it will be one of the greatest days in the republic in my lifetime—even if the GOP doesn’t take control of the Senate.

The traitorous progressive caucus in the US Congress needs to be castrated politically and/or eliminated.

Civil liberties? The co-author of the McCain-Feingold free speech elimination act? Fool me once shame on you. Fool me three times in the same $(#$($* sentence? No $(#$($* way!

Hey, I thought the Tea Party was a bunch of racists, extremists and had no power, and now the treasonous bastards are jumping on OUR bandwagon?

If I didn't take this so seriously, I'd laugh out loud.
