I wanted to make sure you saw this.  On Friday, right-wing radio host Rush Limbaugh compared Russ to terrorist Osama Bin Laden on his nationally syndicated show.

Limbaugh said the al Qaeda leader's most recent audio tape, "sounds like this could easily be [said by] Russ Feingold, the Senator from Wisconsin."

You can see and listen to Limbaugh's rant over at our Campaign Blog.

This isn't the first time Limbaugh has crossed the line and it won't be the last, but this is the sort of slash and burn politics that we are up against. Extremists and corporate special interests are going to do everything they can do to attack Russ's character.  

Send Rush a message by showing your support for Russ.  Take a minute to forward this email to your family and friends to make sure they're aware of the extreme rhetoric the other side is already using. With your continued help we will move our campaign forward together, no matter what gets in our way.

Sincerely,

Melissa Ryan
Feingold Senate Committee
