Sen. Ben Nelson (D-Neb.) reached out Thursday evening to South Carolina GOP Attorney General Henry McMaster, the leader of a group of 13 Republican state attorneys general who are threatening to file suit against the Senate health care bill, and urged him to forgo any legal action, POLITICO has learned.
According to a copy of a memo sent by McMasters chief of staff to other GOP state attorneys general detailing the call, Nelson asked McMaster to call off the dogs, a reference to recent threats by the state AGs to file a lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of a Medicaid provision in the bill that benefits Nebraska at the expense of other states.

Maybe we could nominate Ben Nelson to be the next subject of a "ChetThread."

Polls show if the Republican Governor runs against him in 2012 that Nelson’s ass will be grass.
I think he’s done with any decent GOP opponent.

Gross. I don’t like the big lips regardless, let alone Lisa Rinna freak lips. She looks she got hit in the face.
It’s shame Megan Fox is marring her beauty with tattoos and collagen.

Nelson told McMaster that the Medicaid deal had not been his idea, and that the same Medicaid exemption would be extended to other states. Nelson- Did I leave you guys out? My bad. Pork for everyone on the house!
