For a person who has tooted her health care horn literally from the get go, Tammy Baldwin has had nothing to say while the carefully constructed health care reform bills fall to pieces around her. Leadership, my ass. This is a class "A" non-entity, and our progressive, politically active, highly informed district deserves much better. Okay, some might say that asking for a Russ Feingold clone in the House might be wishing for too much; but why? I mean, if Feingold were a US Representative, WI District 2 would be a match made in heaven. Instead, he represents all of Wisconsin. No quarrel there, but why can District 2 not come up it's own Feingold, and have to settle for a milquetoast personality like TB? (Hah!)
Unfortunately, the record of Dave de Felice, Dane County Supervisor and putative Baldwin challenger, is unknown to me, besides this brief condemnation of the health care process in the WSJ online. This guy has something to say, and from what I can tell, he has no idea either. Okay, you say; what about his webpage? Fuggedaboudit.

If I may make an obnoxiously broad-sweeping comment...
I thought after the Gore debacle, followed by the Kerry sham, that the Democrats had learned to stand up for something.
They have not. Why they cannot look at Feingold (3 terms in a very purple state) and see that his approach = good is beyond me. Unfortunately, Obama (and many,many others) will learn soon that such weak-kneed foolishness, no matter how reasonable-sounding, will be crushed by the madness that is the far right.
Again.
