Another Palin Pick works out. They should have listened to her in Missouri.

I'm kind of surprised he even bothered to get into this race. Bob Kerrey is so "yesterday's news" that he'll be lucky to break 40% in a state where he served already for years.

Personally, I don't think he's ever been the same since Freepers Kristinn and Dr. Raoul manhandled him outside the 9/11 hearings. LOL.

Couldn’t believe that they would let Kerry come in and carpet bag the election.

What a mess.

Excellent news. I take it this will be a Senate seat pick up?

The loser Ben Nelson’s seat. I don’t think Ben will show his face back here anymore.

no on “let him” - Kerrey pulled a fast one by saying he wasn’t interested prior to the deadline for the popular R Nebr. Gov. to file for the seat, then did a Kerr(e)y-style flip-flop and announced he was running anyway. But it didn’t work, Nebraskans have had enough of slick-talking “moderate Democrats” like Ben Nelson, much less one who lives in New York city and whose fancy wife makes disparaging remarks about Nebraska. Deb Fischer is a hard-working Sandhills farm gal, just like another gal we know...

Go home New York Bob!

I thought I read something posted here from today’s Washington Post’s Politico saying what a poor candidate Deb Fischer was, how unpopular she was in Nebraska and how the race was tightening fast. Sure.

It was dirty harry and the NE democrat party who set up the bribe with the secret details that brought the former POS governor and POS senator back to his “home state” after all of those many years being a New Yorker. Most of the rest of Nebraska at the time and through the election have highly “encouraged” carpetbagger Bob to stay the hell away.

I never could stand the guy, and I lean toward believing the career SEAL who became SEAL Team 6, about what they did that night, when Kerry blew his command and became a murderer.

As to the latest attack by Kerrey calling Fischer a bully for suing her neighbors over a land dispute, here is a tidbit you need to know....

If you sell land & the boundaries are wrong, you’re LIABLE for damages & breach-of-contract. Sometimes the courts are the only way to settle.

This tidbit was brought to you by the school of hard knocks.
