Republican Debate
I just recently watched the Republican Governor debate. It was held in Lincoln and it was on public television. The three men were Tom Osborne, Dave Heineman, and Dave Nabidy. They discussed many issues concerning the state, ground water, the economy, and education were the three major issues. They all seemed to have a good plan of what they wanted to do. The only problem I think was that they didn't have enough time to talk about what they truely believed in. I personally think that Governor Heineman won that debate. For one thing he is the incomvent governor and he has already started up many programs to expand the amount of jobs in the state and he said that he would never close down the rural country schools which is a big deal for a lot of family's especially in the western part of the state. All of the men are pro-life when it comes to abortion. However I think that Gov.Heineman should win the election for various reasons for instance he knows the job way better then the other two men. I know that he has only been governor for less then two years but he was the Lt.Governor for many years before that. Plus the other two men have limited if no political backround. Dave Nabidy is just a millionare businessman form Omaha I know that our state will do better econmically if he's elected but Gov.Heineman has a program in now that will expand the number of jobs in the state by 50,000 in the next ten year. Also he is the only one who can see that throught the ten years since he can be re-elected after this term and serve a total of 10 years in office. Tom Osborne is a football coach. Sure he spent 6 years in congress and he did a fine job of it but he's old and congressmen don't really have a lot of responsibility anyway they are just one of over 300 votes on an issue. That was a good job for him so that he can look like he's doing something politically but really just be another number. If he's elected I think that it will just show that Husker football rules the land even more then it does now. I'm sure that he would be a good Governor but the reason he would be elected is because of who he is not what he is.
