5. I live in La Crosse and WI 3 had been held by a Democrat for 26 years.

I think Ron Kind chose to "retire" in a midterm year because he knew it would be a tough race and he might lose. I was never impressed with Brad Pfaff who had just been elected to the state senate and thought he was ready to move up to Congress. He was a weak candidate. A couple of weeks before the election he was out trying to get the rural vote. Yeah, lots of votes to be had there. My hope is that he works to become a good state senator and stops trying to move up to the next level because he's not ready.
