Obama's going to be campaigning in Wisconsin. We'll see if that helps.

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.

The macro environment is so much worse than 1998. Wisconsin always comes through for the Democrats better than it polls, but Feingold needs to be closer than this for him to have a reasonable chance to win.

My guess is that it'll hurt more than it helps.

I disagree, given that Republicans are solidly behind his opponent and the major problem Feingold has is getting young Democratic voters, who still give Obama high favorables and were drawn to him in '08, to come out to the polls. This is one of the best things Obama can do.

lol.  Spare us the embarrassing, over-the-top histrionics. 

Only Carly Fiorina can save our republic from the abyss.
