Close but no cigar
I don't know much about Proxmire, but what I've heard about not taking campaign contributions from special interest groups and the golden fleece awards I'd have to say Proxmire was one of the few admirable people in public life. From what little I know about Paul Wellstone, and I have to admit it isn't much had he lived, he might have been a reasonable facsimile.
