Ron Johnson, Oshkosh businessman and U.S. Senate candidate, is getting a massive national audience today.
He's joining Mark Belling, who's Rush Limbaugh's guest host.
At the top of the program's final hour, Belling talks with Johnson, the front running Wisconsin Republican candidate for U.S. Senate.
Johnson discusses why he decided to run. He tells a personal story. His older daughter, now 27 years old, was born with a heart defect and was saved by the American medical system.
When ObamaCare passed, Johnson was prompted to run.
Obviously, that assault on our freedom touched him deeply given his personal experience.
Johnson talks about American exceptionalism, something Democrats like Feingold don't do.
"I really think we're losing America," says Johnson.
He also talks about the "out of control spending and debt."
Johnson says he believes America is a shining city on a hill, and now, under Obama, we're squandering it.
Johnson vows he will never vote with reelection in mind, saying he loves his life in Oshkosh. He's a reformer who won't get sucked in by Washington, D.C. culture and join that insiders' club.
Belling raises the global warming sunspot issue that Democrats have used to attack Johnson.
Johnson says the mockery is one of the reasons guys like him don't step off the sidelines.
Belling says he thinks that this year attacks such as that won't work.
I agree.
Johnson was very well-spoken. His message is resonating with Wisconsinites. We're ready for change.

Ron did a great job on the radio yesterday. Even if I didn't know him personally, I would have been impressed, especially by his message that he's not going to worry about re-election if he's elected, but about doing what's right for the country. Maybe when he gets to Washington, he can introduce a term limits bill. I just think we need to clean house, and bring in people like Ron who aren't power hungry, but just feel called at this moment in history to serve the Nation.
Yes, he was very impressive and refreshing.
