The 2010 outlook

The Republican party here in Nebraska looks strong for the 2010 election cycle. yes, the democrats have more time to find candidates. so far the only have one official candidate but I am sure with the complaint filed against Tom White that will change. Other than the races for the 2nd and 3rd congressional districts it does not seem the Democrats have much of a field but they don't have much of a bench to pick from though either. Most recently the governor now gets to pick a replacement for Sen. Mike Friend of Omaha. I am sure the governor will do a great job in this appointment. The state Republican party is wanting to add at least two seats to it side of the isle which looking at the races for next year should not be difficult. The continued internal strife of the state Democrats continues to plague the state central committee. The Democrats have strong tradition of track record of fighting the same internal fights they always have.
Democrats from Omaha and some in Lincoln don't think that rural democrats are good democrats and that they should not participate or stay out of the Omaha democrats way. This is nothing new this is also why no Omaha democrat could be elected statewide they just don't get it. Omaha democrats noses are so far up in the air to the rest of the Democratic party that they can't see past the ends of their noses. What does this all mean quite simply a great 2010 election cycle for the State Republican party.
