Another state with a great variety. Hruska was great, as was Zornisky, and Johanns. Exon also wasn't bad either. But, I got vote Ben Sasse. I met him at an question and answer session at a conference. He answered my question, but I didn't get a chance to take a pic or shake his hand Sad Seems like a nice guy though.


Here's the order I'd put them in:

1. Ben Sasse, R-NE
2. Ben Zorinsky, D-NE
3. Mike Johanns, R-NE
4. Roman Hruska, R-NE
5. J. James Exon, D-NE

Voted Zorinsky for his troll-worthy decision to change parties just because he lost the primary.

Umm... yeah? What makes you think he isn't?

To be a hawk according to Sunrise means supporting the killing or displacement of every last Palestinian.

Because I ever said any of that Roll Eyes Disagreements are fine, but accusing me of supporting genocide and ethnic cleansing is not. Especially when it is not actually occurring.

My position has always been that Israel should prevent as much civilian casualties as possible. But, in war this is not possible. I would prefer not to have war, and almost every Israeli agrees with me, but Hamas, Islamic Jihad and the other parasitic terrorist groups that run Gaza clearly disagree.

But he's done nothing at all as senator yet.

Lol, I voted for him pretty much because I met him and he's a nice guy.

Not Kerrey. A war criminal and almost certainly helped coverup human traffiking within Nebraska while governor.
