I worry Feingold will make the same stupid mistake he did in 2010 and not allow outside money to be spent on his behalf. I don't think he's suited for the Citizens United era.

Yeah, Feingold's campaign was a disaster. Before he even thinks about running again, Dems need to make sure he'll be willing to accept outside money. Can't unilaterally disarm.

Didn't you guys say the same thing about Tammy Baldwin? The popular former governor was supposed to be a shoo in against the far left Madison liberal lesbian...

Unlike in say, PA and IL, there's absolutely no reason why a Democratic voter for president would cross over and vote for Johnson. In fact, it's the opposite. R president voters would be more likely to cross over, particularly if Feingold runs. So Johnson's best hope is the Republican nominee carrying Wisconsin and dragging him over the finish line. A pretty tall order.
