Here’s a link to the Hill’s 50 Wealthiest Legislators in Washington! Somebody there missed Herb Kohl…since the 50th person is at $5.1 million, Senator Kohl should certainly have been on this list. The Milwaukee Bucks alone should put him near the top. Wisconsin didn’t do too badly: #26 Representative Jim Sensenbrenner is the Wisconsin [...] Posted by Zach on August 25, 2010, at 5:03 am
According to a review of senators’ 2010 schedules by Congress.org, Democratic U.S. Senator Russ Feingold has held the most town-hall meetings this year of any sitting U.S. Senator: [T]he Wisconsin Democrat has held 72 town-hall meetings this year — a rate of nearly one every three days. Sen. Richard Shelby (R-Ala.) came in second [...] Posted by Zach on August 20, 2010, at 6:11 am
“(But) this is a 55-year-old man. He’s a person who has been out in the community, according to his own account. The fact that he’s never given any serious thought to the Constitution, to the right to bear arms — any 8-year-old in the state has a position on the right to bear arms.

Social Security, a program that has assisted millions of Americans since its inception, will turn 75 tomorrow, and on the eve of that anniversary, I thought we’d take a look at what Sen. Russ Feingold and his main Republican opponent, Ron Johnson, have to say about Social Security. First here’s a statement from Sen. [...] Posted by Zach on August 13, 2010, at 7:02 am
The campaign of incumbent U.S. Senator Russ Feingold unveiled a new ad yesterday. Titled “On Our Side,” the ad touts Sen. Feingold’s record of standing up for Wisconsin’s citizens, while pointing out that one of Sen. Feingold’s opponents, Republican Ron Johnson, opposes extending unemployment benefits to the jobless. Here’s the ad: [...] Posted by Zach on August 11, 2010, at 5:31 am
Senator Russ Feingold’s campaign released its latest radio ad, titled “Stuff,” yesterday. The ad features a lifelong Wisconsin hunter and gun owner (and who happens to be an actual real person!) talking about Sen. Feingold’s strong record in support of Second Amendment rights and freedoms. In addition to talking about Sen. Feingold’s strong record [...] Posted by Zach on August 9, 2010, at 9:54 pm
On Sunday I noted the contrived “controversy” from some on the right over the use of a fake name in a recent TV ad for Sen. Russ Feingold, and while Ron Johnson’s campaign has been furiously trying to get some traction for the story, outside of the typical cast of characters that make up [...] Posted by Zach on August 8, 2010, at 7:31 pm
Cue up the right-wing outrage brigade, this time in the form of right-wing squawker Charlie Sykes, thinks it’s newsworthy that Sen. Feingold used a fictional name in his most recent TV ad. However, as Jay Bullock notes over at his place, perhaps Sen. Feingold’s campaign used a made up name in the ad because [...] Posted by Zach on August 6, 2010, at 7:40 am
70,000 is a heck of a lot of doors: The Feingold Campaign today eclipsed the 70,000-door mark in its aggressive grassroots field efforts across Wisconsin. The earlier-than-expected arrival at this number is due in part to the recent “July Twenty-Fourward” statewide canvass, where supporters knocked on more than 11,000 doors in one day. In [...] Posted by Zach on August 5, 2010, at 5:32 am
Senator Russ Feingold’s new TV ad, “Homegrown,” highlights his opposition to fair trade agreements like NAFTA and CAFTA, which have resulted in the loss of American jobs: |
