Could this be the year for a serious challenge to Russ Feingold? A new Rasmussen poll shows just a one percent separation Wisconsin's junior senator and Republican endorsed senate candidate, Ron Johnson. A virtual dead heat. For now, says UWL political scientist, Joe Heim.   He says it's a little early for a poll to indicate anything definitive about a race.   Although it does suggest the race will be a close one.  Heim thinks Feingold's name recognition will pose a tough challenge for political newcomer Johnson as the election nears in November.
