In tonight’s debate, Sen. Russ Feingold continued to defend his vote for the health-care reform bill. “I want what I voted for, I want this bill,” he said, even though all polling shows a majority of Wisconsin voters favor repealing Obamacare, as Feingold’s opponent Ron Johnson has pledged to do if elected.
