Yesterday, Ron Johnson appeared on Mark Levin's radio program again.
They discussed what's at stake in this election and what an incredible opportunity Wisconsin voters have to help get the country back on track.
Levin began the interview with this remark:
MARK LEVIN: There's a hugely important race, several hugely important races in Wisconsin, but one that I've been focusing on is for the Senate because I find Russ Feingold to be so radical and out of touch. And he's running against a citizen candidate, a terrific candidate - Ron Johnson.
Levin notes that Wisconsin voters have an opportunity to send a message to the entire country.
LEVIN: Now have I heard correctly that you guys have a chance of winning the governorship, too, or am I misplaced on that?
RON JOHNSON: We've got an extremely good chance of not only taking back the governorship, Mark, but also the state assembly and the state senate race. We could have an entire Republican sweep here if we get our voters out, if they stay engaged, and if they get to the polls. So, we've got a real shot here to totally turn the state of Wisconsin around.
LEVIN: Now that would be stunning, I mean, a stunning blow to the Left generally, a stunning blow to this administration, and a signal to the country and the whole world if Wisconsin moves to the Right. Because, you know, Feingold seems to have his finger in every Left-wing kook idea that comes across the table it seems to me, whether it's limiting free speech or promoting Cap and Trade, ObamaCare - he didn't think it went far enough but he wanted to vote for it.
It would be a stunning signal to the country and we have the power to deliver it.
We have to get to the polls and vote. It's such a simple act but it has such far-reaching consequences. It's crucial that we each do our part and participate in our democracy. We decide the direction of our country. Now's the time to act.
Levin closed the interview with Johnson by noting how badly the country needs him to win this election.
LEVIN: So we just want to tell you, Ron, we're really in your corner. We wish you all the best. We really do need you in Washington as well as we need Feingold to be defeated if we're going to turn things around. Thank you for dropping everything and running for the U.S. Senate, and God bless you, my friend.
JOHNSON: Well, we appreciate you, Mark, and appreciate everything you do because America is precious. We need to preserve it.
LEVIN: Amen. God bless you and good luck.
JOHNSON: Take care.
LEVIN: All right, folks, that's Ron Johnson. Literally came out of nowhere, I mean, politically. Successful businessman who said, 'You know what? I can't sit by an watch this anymore.' And took on a man, Russ Feingold, that everybody thought would be in the Senate forever, casting his wildly radical votes. Never met a tax he didn't vote for, a spending bill he didn't vote for, an entitlement. He just favors a massively bigger welfare state, you know, with no limits really.
He didn't think ObamaCare went far enough. That's not an independent. That's crazy.
And finally, he came up against an articulate candidate who has called him on all this and the people of Wisconsin have had enough.
You know what? We're all Americans. We know that way out of this is through the private sector. We know the way out of this is by streamlining and cutting and diminishing the size of government, and pulling it back within its constitutional boundaries. You don't keep punishing people, pushing them around, tormenting them, and yet, that's how Russ Feingold votes all the time.
Free speech, free speech - no, only for the neo-Nazis, only for the Klan, only for the New Black Panther Party, but not for people who want to contribute to a candidate. That we've gotta limit, right?
But we have a very good shot there in Wisconsin and we wish Ron Johnson the best. If you live in Wisconsin, please vote for crying out loud. This is a monumental opportunity to vote in somebody good and vote out somebody who's just too far out there. And if you know somebody in Wisconsin, call them.
Levin nails it when he ways that "this is a monumental opportunity to vote in somebody good and vote out somebody who's just too far out there."
We have to seize it.
Vote for Ron Johnson.
