| New lead for Thompson over Feingold |
| 2010-03-15 |
| A new poll shows Sen. Russ Feingold (D-Wis.) trailing former Gov. Tommy Thompson (R) by 12 points, 51-39. As Thompson wieghs whether to enter the race against Feingold, the polling has largely been encouraging. The latest poll, from the conservative Wisconsin Policy Research Institute, is his biggest lead yet. Rasmussen had Thompson ahead 47-43. Whether the polls are accurate or not, it seems pretty apparent Thompson would make this race something along the lines of a toss-up. He appears to be getting closer to running, and a significant challenge to Feingold would be a big coup for the NRSC. |

| #2 If Tommy doesn't fish or cut bait soon about running, he may lose this edge. Either throw your hat into the ring, or step away from the ring; if you're not going to run, for heaven's sake give somebody else a chance at it. |

| #1 The dhims will face more of this if they push through the health care bill without voting on it. |
