Feingold more foolish than I thought he was.

Regardless of the merits of Russ Feingold’s call to have President Bush censured, cialis prescription it’s just dumb politics.

Someone needs to tell Russ he’s not running against President Bush.

He’s running against Hillary Clinton.

And if a miracle happens and he get’s past Hillary he’s gonna have John McCain to deal with.

Using the wiretaps to posture himself as the anti-Bush candidate doesn’t help him, search it hurts him.

Let’s add it up:

Negatives:
1.) Being against the wiretaps makes him look soft on terrorists.
2.) It looks like the nakedly political move of a future presidential candidate.
3.) It aint’ gonna happen, treatment so the whole thing just makes him look ineffectual.

POSITIVES:
1.) The far left will love his antics.

As you can see, the negatives outnumber the positives.

The problem is, he’s already the left’s candidate.

Continually playing to them just makes him seem too liberal to lead.

If I were Russ Feingold, I’d keep in mind that George Bush is a lame duck.

The bird Russ Feingold needs to worry about is the closest thing the Democratic party has to a hawk: Hillary Clinton.
