Oh boy, Russ is now bringing up the Tea Party issue again. He’s again trying to say the the Tea Party is more in line with his thinking than with Johnson’s.

Feingold blathers on about how ‘he’s the only one’ to do this, that and the other thing...

Yeah. You’re REAL effective as an army of ONE, Rusty. Go home.

He’s SUCH a grandstander! And he’s TRYING to allign himself with the T.E.A. Party crowd, LOL!

"Feingold says “KIDS under 26!” “Kids”?

I was once a kid under 26. Of course, I was in the Army at the time and not mooching off Mama and Daddy.

Johnson is handling himself very well. He’s articulate and READY for this.

I was afraid to watch, but RON JOHNSON is doing GREAT! There is our next US Senator! Feingold looks nervous and on the ropes. This debate helps RON JOHNSON.

Nobody can possibly believe that! Tea Party people detest Feingold

Johnson corrects him and says he’s carried his pocket size Constitution woth him for 40 years!

GOOD on him for saying so.

I had to change the channel. I can't stand seeing Feingold lie like that.

Did Feingold just say that GOVERNMENT NEEDS TO BE MADE UP OF CHECKS AND BALANCES?!?!

And he’s studied the Constitution ‘very carefully’ < smarmy smile > , oh, really?? He’s the only democrat in Congress since Byrd died that has done so then!!! /sarc

Ron Johnson is doing great. He’s well prepared and he’s a very smart man.

I can tell that he’s sincere. The man is a patriot. Your state will be well served by Senator Johnson.

I’ve seen his beautiful family, too.

OH, Woo-Hoo! He’s criticizing Obama and the removal of the missle shields!

Feingold in professorial mode, lecturing to Johnson. I hope Johnson slams him down!

FFeingold is getting more animated. I think he realizes he’s losing this debate...lol.

So far Feingold hasn’t much played the “maverick card”.
I guess that’s getting really old for WI voters.

I work for Walker’s campaign as a volunteer and what amazes me is that Johnson is polling better against Feingold than Walker is polling against Barrett.
Say some prayers, we don’t need another Doyle clone as our WI governor.

Feinhold pushing embryonic stem cell research because it’s going to cure EVERY DISEASE KNOWN TO MAN, and Ron is ‘out of touch’ in this area, and he’s just a big old meanie for being against estcr!!

Johnson telling the truth about ADULT stem cell research actually making medical advances. Good on him.

Is the debate over? I checked C-span on line and they have a video up. I can’t believe the moderator actually pointed out that every candidate before and in cluding Johnson has/had agreed not to use any video of the debate in campagins and that Feingold has refued to agree!

UGH. I wanted to slap the snot out of Feingold for that last slur about stem cells and lost jobs, the liar.

Johnson came back at him all right, I guess.

I sure will pray, you betcha. Wisconsin is showing real hope this year. You already have one of my favorite congressmen, Paul Ryan, of course.

Closing statement by Ron Johnson was very good.
