Feingold For President?

[BenIsForRon]

Are you unwilling to admit that Russ Feingold has a poor Constitutional voting record?

When George Bush was in power, Russ Feingold scored a 20% on the Constitution. That's just sad.

Frank is no longer accepting outside information. He's read the webpage and no longer needs to use logic or reasoning.

 

[Agorism]

No thanks.

Glad Feingold is done.

 

[angelatc]

Answer: no.

FeinGONE.

The McLaughlin pundits laughed and pointed out that Obama had no interest in running, either.

 

[low preference guy]

I'm not sure I wouldn't vote for him.

If he is running against Romney, it wouldn't be hard to prefer Feingold.

 

[FrankRep]

Yes, Feingold was bad. I never said he wasn't, but he is better than a lot of the people who got a higher rating on that Index. Feingold was better on Foreign Policy, Civil Liberties, and he voted against TARP. Yes, he is atrocious in other areas, but apparently you forget that he voted against TARP and the Patriot Act! Unlike you, I do my own research when it comes to a persons votes and record, and don't let the JBS Politburo do my thinking for me.

Look again: Boehner: 64% | Bachus: 56%

When I posted this I wasn't suggesting we endorse him. I was just repeating a rumor I heard.

I would have to do some serious soul searching to not vote for him in the general against any of the perceived current front-runners, that's for sure. I've always said that the wars were the closest thing I had to a single issue, and he's consistently anti-war.

I'm not sure I wouldn't vote for him.

I certainly wouldn't suggest that we endorse him either...and if RP's running for prez, there's no way I could use my vote on anyone but him. But if it's all warmongers running on the GOP side---well then we're talking.

At minimum, I'd encourage the Dems to support Feingold over Obama.

I'm not entirely a one-issue voter either, but the wars and potential war with Iran is getting me closer.

Or Huckabee.

Maybe Feingold / Bloomberg will start that a third party run. Certainly not a platform that I had envisioned previously, but possibly viable at this point in time if the GOP performs as expected and sells us out again.

Do you ever utter a sentence that isn't a regurgitation of something JBS? I have hardly ever seen you utter an original sentence, ever. I am not even sure if you aren't an AI designed to submit every single JBS article on RPF, through the servers in Appleton.

Don't forget Yemen! The shadow of the Whack-A-Mole mallet seems to be hovering over them these days.

Nope. I've known that we're creeping into Yemen for a while. Looks like it's a strategic port. I'm surprised we haven't heard more about Oman yet....

Coming from the person that can only utter- It is all in the books man, read the books man, when questioned about his own hairbrained philosophy that he can neither detail nor practice in his own life.

Ron Paul, Chuck Baldwin, and I love the JBS and The New American. I find it sad that you attack me personally when I post a Constitutional scorecard on the politicians in office.

First off, the methodology used is suspect, and when you dismiss somebody for the horrible methodology employed it makes your judgment suspect. You think more highly of two people who voted for TARP, Patriot Act, and Foreign interventionism over someone who voted against TARP, Patriot Act, and against Foreign interventionism. You have bad judgment.

 

[Son of Detroit]

I wouldn't even think about supporting Feingold. He's scum.

I voted for Chuck and supported Ron.
But the "scorecard" is bullshit.

If it were close to true the War on Drugs would long have ended, the troops would be home and I would own a gun.
The R's are no better and often worse than the D's.

I wouldn't endorse Feingold, but would welcome him to the race just for the alternate views and to chum the waters.

 

[BlackTerrel]

Obama will win the democratic nomination. And honestly he has a 90% chance of winning the general unless the GOP puts in someone who can bring out the independent vote - like Ron Paul. If it is someone like Huckabee or Palin Obama will win all the middle voters and win handily.

 

[Imaginos]

LOLOL.
Thanks for the laugh.

Indeed. Feingold is horrible on economics, just like Kucinich.

You won't find me supporting Boehner (64%), Bachus (56%), or even Feingold (20%). Your statement about me is false.
