Hard to disagree with much here, as usual. I very much agree on Fischer. She has taken the seat for granted since almost falling into it in 2012 as her two primary opponents took each other out (letting her skate by unattacked until the last weekend) and she benefitted from a late stage endorsement from Palin - but she has been stirred and this is a six-year appointment and one of only 33 or 34 seats up this cycle - in a very consequential body that Osborn is well beneath. Im confident Deb will win, but she needs our votes. I am torn on Bacon. He is one of 438 seats (odds that tipping point of house control comes down to NE-2 are small), and a two-year appointment, and our state delegation will remain Republican controlled. I truly believe Vargas could be ousted in two years - and Omaha deserves far better than Bacon, and I think we can get it (I don’t accept that the GOP needs this mediocre Ukraine / Military Industrial Complex First politician archetype in order to win a 50-50 district). Bacon is singularly unimpressive. I would never go as far as to vote for Vargas, but thinking about writing you or someone else in as a protest vote to be honest.
Voting and donating can be two different things. You can vote Bacon but to cover your tracks, donate to Club for Growth candidates who push for economic freedom. (https://www.clubforgrowth.org/)
Voting for Davos Deb is really distasteful. However Osborne is running a Nebraska version of Harris. Just speak in memes with no specifics. He supports common sense gun control - whatever that is. I've asked him a month or so ago what that meant - he has yet to answer. He in the past bragged about that Kelloggs contract he negotiated - uh Kelloggs is shuttering that plant. He can blame who or what ever but until he looks in the mirror and sees the idiot staring back he will miss the mark on why that plant is being shut down. Since I'm in the 1st I don't get to vote for Don the Con, but again the Democrats put up a flaming Marxist so what choice is there? Vargas like all Democrats running for office and nearly all rand and file have a human ownership gene that takes precedence over freedom
Fischer sent me a nastygram during COVID pushing the shots. I was a thoroughly unreasonable person, apparently, because I told her that the shots were killers, because I begged her to do something to stop the carnage.
I did NOT take that lying down. I told her then and I am telling you now that I won't vote for her.
I just can't vote for someone that I absolutely have every reason to believe DOES NOT AND WILL NEVER RESPECT my right to make my own medical decisions and worse, DID NOT RESPECT my right as a mother to speak up for and protect my kids, either.
The woman has been corrupted by Pfizer. She's a menace.
You can say that Dan Osborne is a worse menace and you might be right, but that doesn't make voting for her right. It just makes both of them evil.
We need to find a way to fix things so that we aren't always at the mercy of bad and worse when it comes to politics. We need an amendment to the Nebraska State Constitution that creates a voting thresh-hold below which, if neither candidate gets a vote, they both would have to stand down, and new candidates would be given the opportunity to run and a new election called.

Osborn sounds like Trump guy, so why are Democrats supporting him? Unions?
