"he’s toast...when was the last time your senator was booed out of a pizza joint like benny was?"

I hope you're right, and I'm wrong. BUT, Democrats were saying the exact same thing about Joe Lieberman. How did that work out?

I'm afraid the only thing that's going to beat Nelson is another democrat in the Dem primary, but these long-term "moderates" NEVER seem to lose in the general elections.

You don’t know how the people of Nebraska reacted to him getting booed out though. A lot of us glad somebody had the guts to do it.

Ben Nelson said he would “hold that line” and then he turned tail and ran. Nebraskans have long memories. Ndomikung Suh could easily beat Ben Nelson for US Senate in 2012. We like somebody who tackles the opponent. Somebody who tackles his own team.... not so much.
