Paul, while I disagree that no one besides Russ Feingold has been challenging Bush, I agree with you that Feingold has much to offer Free Liberals, despite attaching his name to the most egregious assault on the First Amendment in recent times. Your comments about Feingold's record on spending brought to mind the great William Proxmire, an anti-war Wisconsin senator who served from 1957-1982. Proxmire was famous for his "golden fleece" awards, given to the most outrageous abuse of taxpayer funds. Proxmire was also a favorite of the National Taxpayers Union and, I believe, was also one of Murray Rothbard's favorites.
