The death Of Liberalism?

Wisconsin is normally a very Democratic state. So it came as a big shock, to me anyway, when Russ Feingold, the man who opposed Iraq and Afghanistan, opposed the Patriot Act, supported the health care bill, among other liberal's ideas, lost to Ron Johnson. A conservative victory in Wisconsin has triggered the talk that liberalism is dead, or at least very injured. If you had asked people a year ago, they would have told you that there was no way Russ feingold could lose, barring a big mistake or a major scandal of some kind. But then the Tea Party showed up, and we started going down the rabbit hole. While some are saying that liberalism is dead, however, there are others saying it'll be back. After all, Wisconsin elected another conservative republican fifty years ago. His name was Joe "The Mad Communist Hunter" McCarthy, who was only taken down after a question of decency. Liberalism is gone, yes, but it will be back in time. And it will start in one of the most liberal states in history: Wisconsin.
