Bernie Sanders lends his e-list to Russ Feingold this morning for a defiant missive which is either sort of yucky or a bit too kinky depending on your point of view:
My opponent, multimillionaire Ron Johnson, thinks his checkbook can decide this election. He’s so confident about winning that he’s already pledged to spend upward of $15 million of his own fortune, or “all of it,” to win.
Today, September 15, my campaign is launching our newest effort:”15 for 15 Cheddarbomb.” We’ll match Ron Johnson’s $15 million with the donations of 15,000 grassroots donors. This is our first-ever “moneybomb” or as we call it in Wisconsin – a “Cheddarbomb.” Our “Cheddarbomb” will show that my campaign can match Johnson’s $15 million with 15,000 grassroots donations of our own – in a single day.
I suppose this means Feingold is willing to sacrifice the vegan vote to entice independents, but is he not concerned about what might happen when this thing blows and leaves the streets strewn with spare tire-saddled men and muffin-topped women?
Also, I love this cheesy-yet-not-cheese-related line: “Ron Johnson and the extremists want to win this election bad.”
Unlike Russ, who could care less if he wins the election, which he is really just using as a vehicle for his dastardly CHEDDARBOMB!
(Cue Dem go-to guy John Cougar Mellencamp re-recording of “Cherry Bomb.”)

Counting the Costs of Clintonism
The debacle of this president’s administration is both a cause and a symptom of the decline of American values. Unless Congress impeaches him, that decline will go on unchecked. An eminent jurist surveys the damage and assesses the chances for the recovery of our culture.

The cheddarbombs will be affixed on the sharks' heads next to the lasers.

The heck with Mellencamp -- go with the Runaways' song of the same title.
"Hello, Dad! Hello, Mom! I'm a ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch CHEDDAR BOMB!"
Easier to look at, too.

Russie Feingold is a fussy, prissy,politically radical tool. He is flawed in numerous areas but one that he lives off continually is his terminal cuteness. This "cheddarbomb" concept is of a piece with his faux adoption of the Wisconsin peoples' affinity for scrupulous handling of money, family values, citizen virtues, et al. Well, frankly, he actually believes,if actions tell the tale, in none of that. He spends the peoples' tax money in Obama-like gobs, if he has ever voted on moral grounds against an abortifacient bill, I'm not aware of it. His ostensible interest in the opinions of his constituents that don't mirror his own radical agenda is laughable. Never mind his wretched McCain-Feingold pus-ridden law. Arroint thee witch the rump-fed runion cried.
