Newly crowned leader of the unhinged Left:

Dem Leaders Have Embraced Sen. Russ Feingold’s (D-WI) Censure “Principle” “Ecstatically”:

“The Left Wing Of The Party Has Greeted Feingold’s Censure Call Ecstatically.” (Shailagh Murray, “A Senate Maverick Acts To Force An Issue, The Washington Post, 3/15/06)

“[C]alifornia Sen. Barbara Boxer [D-CA] Said That She Could Vote For The Resolution.” (Craig Gilbert, “Even Democrats Leery Of Feingold Resolution,” Craig Gilbert, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, 3/14/06)

* The Wall Street Journal: “California Senator Barbara Boxer loudly wrote four legal scholars late last year asking if the NSA wiretaps were impeachable.” (Editorial, “The Impeachment Agenda,” The Wall Street Journal, 3/15/06)

Sen. Tom Harkin (D-IA): “The president broke the law and he needs to be held accountable … Talk about high crimes and misdemeanors!” (Dana Milbank, “The Feingold Resolution And The Sound Of Silence,” The Washington Post, 3/15/06)

* “Harkin Said He’ll Vote For The Feingold Resolution — If It Comes Up.” (Dana Milbank, “The Feingold Resolution And The Sound Of Silence,” The Washington Post, 3/15/06)

Democrat Minority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV): “My personal conviction is that Senator Feingold did this as a matter of principle. Senator Feingold is a man of principle.” (Sen. Reid, Press Conference, 3/14/06)

* Sen. Reid: “I commend Senator Feingold for bringing this to the attention of the American people.” (Sen. Reid, Press Conference, 3/13/06)

Sen. John Kerry (D-MA): “I’m interested in [censuring the President] . . . The President ought to be held accountable, and I think he broke the law.” (Craig Gilbert, “Even Democrats Leery Of Feingold Resolution,” Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, 3/14/06)

Sen. Russ Feingold (D-WI) Shocked Anyone Wouldn’t Back Dem Agenda: “I’m amazed at Democrats … cowering with this president’s numbers so low.” (Laurie Kellman, “Feingold Accuses Fellow Democrats Of Cowering On Censuring Bush,” The Associated Press, 3/15/06)

The hero worship over at HuffPo (hat tip: Allah) is in full bloom…

- Bill Press: Russ Feingold – My Hero
- Frank Dwyer: Feingold is a hero
- Trey Ellis – “Thrilled.”

Meanwhile, Nancy Pelosi tries to change the subject.

Ed Morrissey thinks Feingold may have just turned himself into “the Dennis Kucinich of the 2008 campaign.”

Time for a new “Maverick” watch.
