Poll: Nelson's Abortion Funding Compromise Costs Him With Nebraska Voters

Lincoln, NE -- Until his recent sellout on abortion funding, Nebraska Senator Ben Nelson was a darling of the pro-life movement as the lone consistent pro-life Democrat in the Senate. Now, a new poll shows him losing massive support and he would lose by a lopsided margin in his 2012 bid for re-election.

House (& Senate) cleaning time!

Nelson has EVEN pissed off people in McCook, NE(his hometown). http://omaha.com/article/20091223/NEWS01/712239961

It’s time to throw out all the old garbage that is lying around in the way of economic and cultural progress, costing us liberties, freedom and our future. Scumbags like Nelson are nothing but lowlife criminals, thieves, murderers, scam artist, thugs. Toss all of them. They should be serving in prison.

I just hope Americans overcome their gnat-like attention span and actually REMEMBER all this come election time, whether in 2010, 2012 or 2014.

Throw the pro-abort whore Nelson out with the trash.

“It’s difficult enough to have collegiality.”
Ooooh, poor baby. Sounds like scumbag ben should resign and join a club so he can have collegiality.

[mrsmel]

How ironic that the statue will be entitled “On My Honor”.

[quegley]

Why wait until 2012? RECALL NELSON NOW!

I can’t seem to find a website or org that is mobilizing a petition. I live in TX, so I can’t do any good. Some good citizen of Nebraska needs to step up to the plate.

Drunken bum, they probably used a bottle to get his vote.

Not likely, here in Massachusetts we are either going to elect Coakley, a dem of the worst degree, or Brown a rep that voted for the pandemic bill and the masshealthcare bill and brags about it.

I would like to read some recent polls about Casey and the other traitor which represents Pa in the Senate.

“I just hope Americans overcome their gnat-like attention span and actually REMEMBER all this come election time, whether in 2010, 2012 or 2014.”

Unfortunately, I can’t see that happening. Amerikans only remember what they’ve been told over and over again by the MSM.

See my tagline.

[free1977free]

True, Brown is a rockfeller republican.

[pillut48]

Are these liberals SOOOOO power mad that they can’t read the writing on the wall?? How many of them will be truly surprised to be voted OUT in 2010 and 2012—will they stand there with stupid, uncomprehending looks on their faces as they are shown to the curb?

If they know what’s good for them, they’ll ‘retire’ to the Caribbean islands where they’ve stashed their money they stole from American taxpayers!!!

You cannot recall any federal elected officials.

If you'd bother reading the Constitution you'd discover it has NO RECALL MECHANISM.

That right there should tell you something about the importance of regularly scheduled elections.

[Redleg Duke]

Between Nelson and Baucus, you have them blaming everyone but themselves for what they did!

"The dog ate my homework and it is Bush's Fault" is all they have!

[bassmaner]

Let’s hope abortion is not the only reason NE voters are fed up with Nelson’s cave on socialized medicine.

[jim_trent]

I doubt that he ever intended to run in 2012. There were questions if he planned to run again in 2006. He will be 70 in 2012 and “public service” has made him rich. Why not kick back and enjoy it while he is still alive.
