"despite the fact that he was a Republican until the day he announced he was a candidate"

Nebraska elections have no party affiliation.  The affiliation only come from the National Parties recognizing and supporting the candidate.  Did the Dem party openly welcome this clown in?  I think there might be some confusion here.

First he tells us its a swing state now its a southern state.  So is Illinois apparently.  Maybe they are southern to Nick but not me.

But seriously, I agree that the Dems are running moderate  candidates in conservative districts.  Considering the blue dog caucus is threatening to kill the GI Bill this seems to represent a potential problem for progressives.  But I am a political pragmatist and eviscerating the GOP is priority one.  Herding our kittens to the light comes later.
