Nelson: Like Mass. voters, I'm fed up with Washington
By Jordan Fabian - 01/20/10 04:13 PM ET
Centrist Sen. Ben Nelson (D-Neb.) said Wednesday that he -- like voters in Massachusetts who elected Republican Scott Brown -- is frustrated with Washington.
Nelson responded to Brown's Tuesday victory over Democrat Martha Coakley as Democratic leaders were scrambling to develop an alternative plan to pass healthcare legislation after Brown is seated as the 41st senator, breaking the Democratic super-majority.
"Clearly, the vote showed that people are frustrated with Washington...and I am too," Nelson said in a statement. "That frustration will likely register across the board for all incumbents. The overriding message from yesterday is that people are upset because Washington is dysfunctional and not working together for them."

That takes some nerve.
Shut up and retire, you useless heap of filth.
Hey Nelson an honorable person would commit hari-kari or at least resigning after your vote. Then again that is an honorable person/
OMG!
Talk about dysfunction junction ...
what’s your function?
Hookin’ for votes and bribes and payoffs.
I saw that. He said something like “its not just last yr or the last 2 yrs that have people angry, its the last 8.” He’s the guy we’re mad at and he is trying to tell us why we are mad?
Wow, even without the dems heads those are some ugly hookers
Oh that is so good. You should email it to his office.
Gee Ben a little remorse after selling yourself to Harry Reid or is it that you are scared of the voters wrath?
Ben - You fed up with DC? Then quit.
He’s got so much nerve. He had his chance to be a hero and now he will be remembered as a coward, bought and paid for.
Nelson: “Like Mass. voters, I’m fed up with Washington”
Fine.
Get. Out.
That’s hysterical! I could win a Halloween costume contest with that pimp outfit.
Oh Ben, it ain’t because politicians aren’t working together, it is because you democrat whores haven’t the courage to stand up against the communists in your party.
You suck, Ben and you are a coward of the worst sort. Gawd what a fool you are.
“But Nelson took the election results as a call to action for both parties...”
LOL! Yeah, ok benjiboy.
Go find some land in Iceland and live in a yurt, Nelson. Then, maybe we’ll talk.
Add “no more tax funding of NEA”
Since he sold his soul, all he has left to sell is his hairpiece. Too bad he is not a constitutional scholar or he would have known that his bribe would be taken out of the final legislation. His excuse of putting it in “as a placeholder” is pure Barbara Streisand.
Good E. Ben, RESIGN!
Note to Ben:
Sir- you can have all the buyer’s remorse you can muster for your vote on NObamacare.
It isn’t resonating with those of us who see you as a total sellout. Then you continue to flip-flop. You are a perfect example of what America does NOT like about Democrats. Somewhere along the way, you all apparently genetically got your spines altered. Now you have none.
Have a nice life in the near future- which does NOT include your continuing participation in Congress.
