Russ Feingold For President? No So Fast.

I like Russ Feingold if only for the fact that he says what every elected Democrat wishes they could say but lack the courage to say it. With that being said, I think that he is barking up the wrong tree with his push to censure the President over the wire tapping issue. While I don’t necessarily disagree with his position, I think it is a non-starter with the American people. Nobody really fears that the government will illegally listen in on their phone conversations and if they do, most Americans have been so scared by the Bush Administration that the terrorists are lurking everywhere that they really don’t care about wire tapping. If the American public refuses to get upset that they were lied to over and over again about why we went to war with Iraq why would they get upset about this?
