Did you hear Shrub might nominate Nelson for cabinet post?

I've been watchng the posts today, and havent' seen this one. Shrub might ask Sen. Nelson to join his cabinet. Pubs are saying it's a sign he's beng bi-partisan. Dems are saying they want to take another Senator out of the Senate, and his replacement would be nominated by a Pub Governor.

13. Hey! Now You're Talking!

I thought about those two Nelsons as well earlier. You must have grown up in the 80s like me?

4. I also read a horrible article yesterday

Raise millions for complete asswipe....get cabinet position.

6. Do America a favor, Sen. Nelson. DON'T TAKE THE JOB

Yo, Bennie, Bush is trying to take Democratic senators in states with Repuke governors to get a filibuster-proof majority, so they can ram their tyranny down our throats. DO NOT TAKE THE JOB--IT'S A TRAP!!!

7. Bill Nelson is from Florida.

Ben Nelson is from Nebraska. Which one is it? I hope neither of them.

9. He must have been reading DU.

That sort of thing was suggested all the time here.

12. Shrub pulled the same shit with John Breaux in his first cabinet.

Breaux politely declined.

14. I hope he takes the job

A good chance to get rid of another DINO. His seat is up for election in 2006 and we can offer the voters a real progressive candidate instead of a repub lite.

15. BS! We'd be gicing up a rare senate seat and we can't do that!

Let him take someone from the house because there's such a wide margin there it wouldn't matter, but not the Senate! There's an alterior motive here!!!
