Kerrey Buys Home in Nebraska

Any thoughts on whether he'd be better than Nelson (yea, I know, you can't do much worse).

Kerrey Buys Home in Nebraska


Former Sen. Bob Kerrey (D-NE) tells The Fix that "he is buying property in his former home state of Nebraska, but that it doesn't mean he will seek a return to the Senate in the Cornhusker State."

"Kerrey left Nebraska after retiring from the Senate and at one point flirted with the idea of running for mayor of his new home, New York City, where he headed up the New School university.. That's something Republicans are likely to use against him if he opts to run for retiring Sen. Ben Nelson's (D-NE) seat. But if he does run, Kerrey will have a Nebraska address from which to do it. A senator must live in the state he or she represents."
