Not really much of a post - more of a bit of good news.
Former Senator Bob Kerrey (D is reconsidering his decision to not run for Nebraska's open Senate seat:
Lincoln Journal-Star - Kerrey reconsidering
Sweet. This would never have hit the press if he hadn't already made up his mind.
The story immediately hit the top of the Journal-Star's comments so it is NEWS around here. Kerrey, plus news that Obama's cranking up to fight for not just one but two electoral votes in Nebraska. He won Omaha's CD-2 last time. He'll add Lincoln's CD-1 if the reports are true.
The local media is salivating over the potential $$$$$.
Even if he doesn't vote with us any more often than Ben Nelson, he'll be better than any of the Teapublican dwarfs trying to out-wingnut each other for the (R) spot on the ballot.
We may be a RED state, but the majority of folks are still mostly sane - as is Bob.
