Barry, that is why Russ Feingold is the ONLY Democrat who offers a real alternative to Bush & Bush Lite Dems. He voted against the war, he is still against the war, was the first senator to call for the troops to come home by a set date, and the only senator to stand up on the Senate floor and say "censure Bush".

Also, was the only senator to vote against the Patriot Act.

Also, is the Democratic senator to work with McCain to start the ball rolling on campaign finance reform (and no, he doesn't consider the job finished any more than McCain does).

In other words, he is the only Democrat who is a viable candidate because of a clear, consistent record throughout two terms of the Bush administration.
