Related: About this forumquestion for our good Nebraska DU'ers about Sasse
Sasse said the other day he thinks about leaving the Republican Party. To me, he would either become an independent or a conservative Democrat.
Could he get re-elected if he became a Democrat or independent in NE ? Just curious. Thanks in advance.

(6,916 posts)Most students at schools like Harvard are liberals because theyre smart and understand how the world works.
The very few hard right conservatives- like Sasse and Cotton - get picked up and promoted by rightwing billionaire organizations.
Sasse would most likely be a nobody if he were a liberal.

Not as a D though - he doesnt agree with us on anything policy wise.
As has been stated though Ive had him pegged as a guy who sees himself as a future President. He wants people on both sides to think hes reasonable but hes not. Hes an ultra conservative guy.
When he ran for the first time in 2014 his number one platform and position was that he said he was the most anti Obamacare candidate. Thats the kind of asshole he is at heart.
