In Wisconsin, I'm running against Russ Feingold, a man who even after 911 was the only senator to vote against giving law enforcement the tools they need to help stop international terror. During his 18 year Senate career, [Russ Feingold] also voted against authorizing our military 11 separate times. Now he's asking Wisconsinites to give him a fourth term. Justice Hillary Clinton is asking America to give her Obama's third term. The world is simply too dangerous to elect either of them. (03:05–03:14)
