Although Nebraska is a basically Republican state there have been some Democrats who have managed to become quite successful here, including former Senator Bob Kerry. But for the moment the GOP remains largely in the drivers seat.
President: Only the most optimistic Obama supporter would expect him to carry Nebraska. The polls all show McCain with a wide lead.
Safe Republican
Senate: In 2006 Democrat Scott Kleeb won a surprising 45% of the vote in the normally Republican 3rd district. But in taking on former Governor Mike Johanns he is shooting for the moon. Polls show Johanns even stronger than McCain.
Safe Republican
House: All 3 house seats should remain safely Republican
