Senate Conservatives Fund | Jim DeMint
WISCONSIN | Ron Johnson (R) continues to exceed all expectations for a candidate running in Wisconsin against an entrenched incumbent.
Like Democrats across the country, Feingold's desperate strategy in this race is to twist Johnson's words to make him appear like an "extremist." So far, it doesn't appear to be working. A new Rasmussen Reports poll shows Johnson in the lead now by 1 point over Russ Feingold (D)...the real extremist. He recently joined his liberal colleagues in the Senate in voting to use taxpayer funding to sue Arizona and to let the death tax come back to life. That's not just liberal -- it's very liberal.
The significance of winning this race cannot be overstated. The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel described it this way: A Feingold defeat would give the GOP its first victory in a U.S. Senate race in Wisconsin in 24 years. Nationally, it would give the party at least a shot at winning a Senate majority. While Feingold is by no means the most endangered Democratic in that chamber, his is the sort of contest - uphill but not implausible - that Republicans have to win to make up a massive 10-seat Senate deficit.
Real Clear Politics Polling Average / Nov 2 General Election: Russ Feingold +2%
SCF Investment Total / Ron Johnson: $14,650.25

WI Targets for Replacement: Obey, Kind, Kagen, Feingold
Obey (Pulled out of the race!), Kind, Kagen Would Welcome Terror Suspects
Today Wisconsin’s Congressional Democrats voted against a successful GOP measure to keep GuantanamoBay detainees out of the United States!
Obey lays out the welcome mat for Gitmo prisoners. He's retiring - one down!
Feingold’s Fundraising Fabrication
Senator Russ Feingold sent a fundraising e-mail that claims he’s been outspent in every Senate race he’s ever run. Considering Feingold spent $4 million more than his opponent in 2004, his claim is laughable.

Statewide Races
Scott Walker for WI Governor
Since his election, "Scott faithfully kept his promise to spend taxpayer money as if it were his own. He cut the county’s debt by 10%, reduced the county workforce by more than 20% and authored seven consecutive budgets without increasing the property tax levy from the previous year. Despite failing national and state economies, Milwaukee County recorded a budget surplus in 2008. Re-elected in April of 2008, Scott received nearly 60% of the vote in a county that favored President Obama by 67%." Join Scott Walker's new online supporters!

Jennifer London: 4th District Congress
Jennifer London is a one of our own SRWC members running as a Candidate for the 4th Congressional District of Wisconsin. She invites you to take a tour of her website to learn about her solutions for returning our government and our country to its Constitutional foundation. The limitations on federal government powers, immigration, states rights and taxes are just a few topics where she has practical, sensible, real world solutions.
The year 2009 saw a united voice emerge from the American people, a cry for freedoms and liberties that are endowed—not by the false benevolence of our elected officials—but by our Creator. Mass mailings and phone calls, tea parties, protest marches and grassroots groups have arisen in response to the federal abuses of power. None of this can stop. We cannot sit on our laurels the day after the November 2010 election, otherwise Washington will go back to business as usual. Jennifer needs you to help her put pressure on her future colleagues in Washington. You must continue to organize and protest against the corruption. Help her return America to its roots.
