Feingold Announces He Won't Seek Presidency
My first pick is out already. From The AP: Feingold Won't Run For President |
Researching Today's issues for progressive change
To announce that there must be no criticism of the president, or that we
are to stand by the president, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic
and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.
Theodore Roosevelt, 1918

My first pick too.
I'm been told he'll better serve as a Senator but this still is bad news. He's one of the few willing to stand on his beliefs and the rule of law without succumbing to political pressure.
That's a good point Gracie. He can stay focused and maybe get something accomplished in the Senate. So who's bandwagon now?
He was my top pick too. Too progressive to be electable, perhaps?
He may feel that way Pam. At least he won't be distracted in the Senate now.
He's also too freakin' smart to run. I wanted him to in the worst way, but I understand why he isn't. Who in their right mind would want to be in charge of mopping up the crap bush will leave behind. I guess now my dream ticket would be gore and clark. Sadly I fear we will have no choice and we will have to hold our noses and vote for Hillary. I sure hope not.
Long way to go POP. Somebody will rise above Hillary, that bar isn't very high.
