2008: Feingold out for President
With Democrats taking over the House and Senate, Feingold wants to focus on his Senate work:
“We can actually advance progressive solutions to such major issues as guaranteed health care, dependence on oil and our unbalanced trade policies,” he wrote.
(…)
He said running as an underdog appealed to him, but not the way it would “dismantle” his work in the Senate and his personal life.
The number of candidates with grassroots support is narrowing fast. Is this clearing the way for Hillary’s coronation or increasing the chances a dark horse candidate could enter the game late?
