NE-Sen: Heinemann less than likely to run, despite fusion appeal (NRO)

Fortenberry might try for Governor or Senator, but I think he would get crushed unless the mood for more moderate Republicans starts to turn.

I think Lee Terry is next in line, though.

If he runs, his house seat is vulnerable.

Oh right, that is the district Obama won.

The only Democrat who isn't a limp-wrist idiot in Nebraska is the Mayor of Lincoln Chris Beutler, and if Terry runs I think he is very likely to win that seat should Terry become the Senator.

Why is everyone forgetting about Jon Bruning? ? ?

I feel like he's going to become the next Don Stenberg, but since there is no Ben Nelson to hold him back, he very well could be the next Senator. I'm just thinking the GOP might go for someone who wasn't the loser of the primary last time around.
