? How the Hell would someone know who you vote for when we have SECRET ballots?

On the Nebraska Democrats, would that be really bad considering Chuck Hagel would have been the Republican he voted against or Ben Nelson the Democrat he voted for?

Nebraska United States Senate election, 1996[40]

Chuck Hagel (R) - 379,933 (56.12%)
Ben Nelson (D) - 281,904 (41.64%)
John W. DeCamp (Libertarian) - 9,483 (1.40%)
Bill Dunn (Natural Law) - 4,806 (0.71%)
Write-ins - 832 (0.12%)

True that. Hagel made Nelson look like the right-winger.

The article says that campaign manager Gordon is the source of the information. And that Cain turned Republican by 1996.

That was the year he started lobbying for the National Restaurant Association.

Someone would have to tell you.

I spoke with Jordan earlier on the phone about this story, and he reaffirmed that he interviewed Cain days after his famous televised clash with Bill Clinton on health care in 1994. During his interview with Jordan, Cain admitted that he had voted for Clinton in 1992. Jordan reported that fact for CBS affiliate KMTV in Omaha, and Cain never disputed it."
