My choice--Sen. Russ Feingold of WI.

Governor Jim Doyle could appoint his replacement (I'd love him to select Rep. Tammy Baldwin of Madison if that happened).

3. Supreme Court hearings would be much funnier!
Can you imagine Franken cutting up with Scalia?

2. I like Feingold. Whitehouse arguing with Scalia could be quite entertaining.
Several good choices.

8. Specter!
He's pro-choice, and seems to be more liberal on social issues, conservative on economic issues. We achieve a couple things by doing this: 1) get him out of our hair and free up his seat for a REAL Dem. 3) Piss off the Republics even more, because I'm a crack whore for the sounds of their heads exploding
