you really hate him dont you....

whereas from afar I just see the most over-rated human being of all time incapable of living up to the unfair and ridiculous hype and lacking in any really interesting and new ideas.

he is boring.... already.

 

No, I don't hate him. I am very impressed with in actually. Here is a man with no real experience, and no skills to do the job he is elected to do. He wanted to be the most powerful man in the world, and he achieved it. That's very impressive. The people that disappoint me to no end, are the ones who put him in office. The ones to taken by his charm to realize we need someone who can fix this country, and not someone who just tells them what they want to hear. I mean it's like everyone getting upset about the congressman from Nebraska who got millions of dollars for his state. I am not sure why everyone is upset with him. He did his job (work in the interest of the people he represents). The people you should be disappointed in, is every other congress member that agreed to it. All his did (and all Obama did), was ask for something. The people in power (in Obama's case, the American people) had to give them what they asked for. Those are the ones am angry with.No, I don't hate him. I am very impressed with in actually. Here is a man with no real experience, and no skills to do the job he is elected to do.

Ben Nelson wasn't exactly working for the interests of his state though (a state I live in). 

The healthcare bill is wildly unpopular here and he went from being a 30point favorite in the polls before voting for the bill to a 30 point underdog to Governor Heineman afterwards. 

In fact in a recent news story here locally he supposedly had to leave a restaurant because of other customers disgruntled by his mere presence. Allegedly people were shouting "Get him the hell out of here!".

The idea of "the interests of your state" isn't just bringing $$$ into the state, it's doing so without forsaking things your constiuents care about.  And in Nebraska, on the whole, we care quite a bit about this awful healthcare bill being stopped.

So no, Ben Nelson wasn't doing his job for Nebraskans, he was being a party politician and he got the bribe he did so he could hide behind it here locally.  The problem was they have severely underestimated how strongly those who oppose the bill truly oppose it.
