sure it won't help him with the gop, but it sure will with independents.
some nice quotes:
"but the notion that somehow (mccain) is going to get in there and be some kind of ideological newt gingrich right-winger is a joke. there's no way that he would do that," feingold said.
"he's a great guy to fight an uphill battle with legislatively. he keeps his word. . . . i probably shouldn't be saying this stuff, but to be honest about it, it was one of the better professional experiences i've ever had in my life," feingold said.
"it's unfair, because mccain's a blast. he's fun to be around. he's certainly young in spirit. he's actually very young in energy," said feingold.
"yes, he shows temper. but he burns fast, and he doesn't let it cloud his judgment. he would not be a loose cannon in the oval office," said feingold. "it's not like he's going to pick up the red phone in a rage."
"so he somehow managed to become the nominee of the republican party. but we all know it's not because he was somebody that was kissing up to the republican establishment, to say the least."
I respect Feingold, or anyone who speaks so honestly (even Papa), but his quotes will hardly negate McCain's own words that he has voted with Bush 90% of the time.
Russ has been a bad boy. I'm going to have to spank him.
