Hum..."The Hill" refers to Russ Feingold as a "fiscal hawk???" Not sure about that. This is another one of these moves by Feingold to look like a Maverick without really doing anything. "Look at me, I'm criticizing my own president. See, see, I'm a maverick." It's an empty gesture that will do no harm to Obama and let Feingold try to paint himself as centrist. As we've pointed out on this blog earlier, if Feingold really wanted to be a Maverick, he would have fought vigorously against a health care reform bill that does not have the public option that he has made clear in the past he so strongly supports.
