Wisconsin Senator Russ Feingold, considered to be a political powerhouse, stands on the verge of losing his seat to Republican Ron Johnson. With time running out the latest Rasmussen survey has Johnson again crossing the 50% threshold, leading Finegold 53% to 46%. Johnson has been leading Finegold for some time and appears to have locked this race up. Johnson’s campaign came up with one of the most talked about ads of the political season, the “whiteboard” ad, which is (in my opinion) highly effective. It received so much play that Feingold felt obligated to respond with his own “whiteboard” ad. Not as effective. This is one that I believe you can chalk up for the Republicans.

Your Honor,
You hailed it.
Ron’s add was believable. Finegold’s was typical meaningless mush.
Being a political expert do you have any outcome predictions?

Your Honor Off Subject
Your liberal loyalty always befuddled me. Now I found that it is NOT your fault.
A study by some colleges, including Harvard, has found the following;
“According to scientists at UC San Diego and Harvard University, “ideology is affected not just by social factors, but also by a dopamine receptor gene called DRD4.” That and how many friends you had during high school.”

So accept my apologize since I blamed you for something you had no control.
