Wisconsin Professors Plan Dual Congressional Race

I recommend everyone listen to this NPR news program on a race based on ideas not money and spin. I do not know if it will work, but I do like the idea.

NPR-An unusual political campaign is unfolding in Wisconsin. Later this month, two professors will launch joint campaigns for the congressional seat long held by Republican Rep. Jim Sensenbrenner. What’s unique is that one professor will run as a Democrat, and the other as a Republican. They are sharing everything from yard signs to campaign headquarters. They say their goal is to change the nature of political campaigns.

    This is what Russ Feingold started back in 98. He promised not to spend more than x dollars per resident in WI while the Republican millionaire poured money into the state. However, it worked for Feingold and so others are now going to try it. Good thing, imo. Too much money anymore and people, especially conservatives, believe that money is tied to winning, free speech etc.
