| Description | MILWAUKEE — Democratic Sen. Russ Feingold invoked the name of Wisconsin's other U.S. senator during a debate Friday to suggest that Republican nominee Ron Johnson is out of his league as a political businessman.
Johnson, who has no political experience, has anchored his campaign on his three-decade background as an accountant and manufacturer. He has called Feingold fiscally irresponsible because the senator voted for the "budget-busting" health care reform law and economic stimulus bill.
Feingold fired back Friday in their third and final debate, saying that Democratic Sen. Herb Kohl — who helped develop his family-owned department store chain — has far more polished business credentials than Johnson and also supported both measures.
"What's wrong with his business judgment?" asked Feingold, who until Friday had not mentioned his colleague's name on the campaign trail. "Herb Kohl has some of the best business experience of anybody in the history of this state." |
