Rumors of a Russ Feingold Return?

The rumors are flying and the Democrats seem to be set on a return of Russ Feingold?

Russ Feingold? 

Seriously I am not sure what the left could possibly be thinking if they are trying to resurrect the career of former Sen. Russ Feingold.

Feingold was once considered a career politician in Wisconsin.  He was thought to have the senate in the palm of his hand and in control of his career.  Right up until the point that he was beaten by Sen. Ron Johnson.

Wisconsin has since continued to tilt more to the right and has done so in amazing fashion. 

For the Democrats to try and go back to the well and resurrect the career of a politician who was way left seems to be a desperate attempt at a hail marry.

Republicans have to be thrilled at the prospects of a rematch between the former Senator and the Senator who beat him.  Johnson won 52%-47%. 

This should be an interesting watch as the election cycle comes more into focus.
