This right now is the lull before the 2010 election cycle. This is the time when potential candidates a deciding whether to run for office or not. This is not an easy decision to make. It is a sacrifice for any family involved especially for a candidates family they are pushed back to a back burner during the campaign.
The Omaha World Herald recently said that the conservative nature of our legislature was evident because of the new state senators. Term limits have made our legislature more conservative basically. Looking at the list of legislative races of the 24 it is very likely the legislature will become more conservative. The State Republican party believes it can pick up at least two seats and will be focusing hard on two seats too pick up and helping in others.
Two democrats I would go after are Dist. 26 Amanda McGill who won her seat by a couple hundred votes. The second is Dist. 46 Danielle Nantkes who now has her third DUI which her opponent or opponents can should and will use in the campaign. After that Dist. 8 Tom White is most likely to run for Congress challenging Rep. Lee Terry. One has to believe the state party would love to take that open seat from the democrats and beat White in a congressional race.
