Most depressing election news yet.

Beet, I'm ready to whine with you about this one.

Even as Boxer and Muarry seemingly begin to pull away, we are losing probably the best person in the US Senate.

It will come down to turn out, but Feingold will survive. It will be a 50-48 win for him like it 1998. It's too early for the Republicans to declare this one in the bag.

Did he ever trail by a significant amount in the polling prior to that race being decided?

Well, I'll give you guys a bit of a good news with the bad.

PPP has Boxer clearly pushing in front in her race (as I alluded to in my first post here):

Someone else can enter this in the poll section. Boxer is good but I'd keep Feingold over her any day of the week.

He actually trailed by over 20 points at one point in 1998, but I think that was in August.

No kidding? Interesting.

I'm actually one of those people that actually kinda likes Feingold.  I'd gladly take W VA and DE and leave Feingold where he is as well.  I felt the same way about Evan Bayh.

It will be interesting if O'Donnell should win an Feingold loses.

What does O'Donnell have to do with this? And she isn't winning, get over it.
