Flip-Floppin’ Ben Nelson

By: Mr. Wilson on August 16, 2007

Roger Welsch thinks Ben Nelson is due for a party switch:

I predict that if there are substantial losses for the Republicans in the Senate next year, Ben Nelson just may become a Democrat.

He's probably right since, you know, Ben Nelson already is a Democrat. That's not what Mr. Welsch means, of course. He is suggesting that Nelson will convert from a DINO to a real, honest-to-goodness Democrat. Do you think Mr. Welsch is right? Or do you think Senator Nelson will stick to his cross-party ways?

Love the term “DINO.” Wonder if that’s what the new sports bar at 84th and Van Dorn is referring to? 😉

I figure Sen. Nelson will continue to wave whichever way the wind is blowing. Politically a safe strategy that works for him but it’s frustrating to watch.

He will remain the same he is now.

Nice to see one of my favorite political terms, RINO, has been hijacked.

I don’t see why the D’s picking up seats would change the Nebraska electorate. Nelson isn’t going to change his ways.

He will stay as is. He represents us well.
