Goo-Goo Feingold For President
R. Alex Whitlock
Don't get me wrong, I'd probably vote against him, but I'd almost feel bad about doing so. Those who wonder if there are "any good liberals left" with Wellstone's tragic death should keep Feingold in mind. He's not quite as liberal and not nearly as professorial, but even when I've disagreed with him I've always believed he was sincere. I believe McCain/Feingold is unconstitutional and bad law, but I am inclined to be more trustful of Feingold's motives than McCain's.

this one, which my friend Mike sent me this morning, remind me why:
Sen. Russ Feingold (D-Wisc.) yesterday (Jan. 28) reintroduced his Competition in Radio and Concert Industries Act, which he says will help consumers, small and independent radio station owners, and indie concert promoters by prohibiting anti-competitive practices in the radio and concert industries, Billboard Bulletin reports.
And yes, below it says that McCain is co-signing the legislation, so I am remotely grateful to him as well.
Give'em hell, Russ!

All these are firmly bound by Love, which rules both earth and sea, and has its empire in the heavens too. If Love should slacken its hold, all mutual love would change to war; and these would strive to undo the scheme which now their glorious movements carry out with trust and accord. By Love are peoples too kept bound together by a treaty which they may not break. Love binds with pure affection the sacred tie of wedlock, and speaks its bidding to all trusty friends. O happy race of mortals if your hearts are ruled as is the universe, by Love.
