3:14Now Playing"Former Sen. Russ Feingold said Thursday he would seek a rematch with Wisconsin GOP Sen. Ron Johnson in a race crucial to Democrats’ hopes to win back the Senate in 2016.
Feingold spent 18 years representing Wisconsin in the Senate before losing to Johnson, a tea party-affiliated businessman, by 5 percentage points in 2010.
