Wisconsin Senator Russ Feingold says the time has come for a "cheesehead" in the White House, but he doesn't know if he's the one to take that mantle.
He put his chances of seeking the nomination in 2008 at "probably higher" than one in 100 while saying it was too early to commit to the race. He told A-B-C's "This Week" that the country is overdue for a cheesehead president because there never has been one.
Feingold is mentioned as a possible candidate because of his anti-war views. He is among the Democrats in recent months who have visited New Hampshire, the site of the first presidential primary. He voted October 2002 against a resolution authorizing the president to use force in Iraq and was the first senator to call for a timetable to withdraw U-S troops from Iraq.
