Russ will need a job soon, where should Obama put him?

[usregimechange]

Assuming he is willing and that the country deserves him...

The following are vacant positions of the federal government (including those currently filled with "acting" temporary officials).

[sabrina 1]

1. Justice Department

He's exactly what we need in the DOJ. And what I had expected when got a Democratic majority, principled Democrats, not holdovers from the corrupt and tainted Bush DOJ. It's way past time to clean house at the DOJ. Feingold and Grayson who is a brilliant and very successful lawyer, would be a huge improvement over what is there right now. They both actually respect the rule of law.

2. Where at DOJ?

[Richard Steele]

6. AMEN to that. nm

[OneTenthofOnePercent]

3. Based on track records...

He'll probably get thrown under the bus.

[JDPriestly]

8. I would like to see him work independently to educate voters.

I don't see him fitting into the Obama administration. And he certainly won't be hired by a corporation as a lobbyist.

[Ken Burch]

4. I'd make him an "Election Reform/Civil Liberties advisor"

He needs a job that won't require Senate confirmation...because they 'Pugs will filibuster his nomination to anything to death.

[DFLforever]

5. DC Court of Appeals - prep step for his appointment to the

US Supreme Court.

7. +1

[Ellipsis]

9. Sorry, but Russ doesn't need Obama... Obama needs Russ. And Feingold gets that.

[UrbScotty]

10. If Kohl retires, Russ ought to run for his seat (nt)

[pansypoo53219]

11. supreme court.

[OmahaBlueDog]

12. I'd guess he has better odds than many of getting through the Senate.

I'd say it's better than 50/50 that Omama gets at least one more pick.

[PufPuf23]

13. Other. Obama will ignore Russ Feingold except if called on to be polite in statement.

[FrenchieCat]

14. Speculating in the negative again, are you?

Must feel great to know what you don't know, but pretend that you do.
What if we all could do that? Wouldn't that make everything swell?

[PufPuf23]

15. Everything isn't swell, if you have not noticed.

I don't pretend to know anything. I answered a poll with my best guess on past performance.

My negative is learned and earned and the pattern seems obvious.

[Individualist]

17. +1

[Nite Owl]

16. Other

SCOTUS

next opening which should (but won't) be after Thomas is impeached for his lies.

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

18. Secretary of State or Defense
