I think Scott Kleeb could make this interesting... in 2006, he lost by 10 points in the most conservative district in Nebraska (which I think is R+24 or something like that)...

Oh right isn't that the same guy who did worse than Obama did statewide in 2008??

Yeah, he would be extremely competitive in 2012!

Against a popular governor, yes.

I'm not saying Kleeb will win, only that he could make the race somewhat interesting, not that he'll win. But Bruning is facing some ethical investigations and Stenberg has lost many elections, too, so I don't think dems should give up in Nebraska. Hey, republicans can still nominate someone like Santorum or Paul, which would help democrats everywhere.

What about Wareen Buffett?? ahahaha

Oh, and if democrats don't want to try to make this close... I think the best candidate is Ernie Chambers, too. He's funny Smiley

Wikipedia says he ran for governor once and got 0.44% of the vote. Does anyone know WHEN that happened??
