feingold and barrett were both on the ticket. brat day or some damn thing...
anyway...
one of my kids and i drove up to march with the feingold crew. and he had a bunch there.
Lots of blue t shirts.....
barrett show up with a staffer or tow and no supporters....not even enough to carry his damn banner.
Sheyboygan is what 30 40 miles north of his base...milwaukee...and he doesn't even have a crew of supporters.
my son and i and a few other feingolders switched t shirts and marched as team barrett. At the end of the parade
team barrett needed the t-shirts back....lol
it became obvious even to me that the barrett compaign was toast....

i like barrett, great mayor, great congressman...but damn he can not run a state wide campaign to save his soul....
