Name recognition in Omaha is our greatest challenge…and the only answer to that is more fundraising. (You knew I’d get around that response…;)

Scott remains well-known and well-liked in the Western 2/3rds of Nebraska due to his ‘06 run. Senator Nelson has been helpful to our campaign as has Senator Menendez, D-NJ, Energy Committee, who visited Omaha and toured an ethanol plant with Scott.

No one said this was going to be easy, but with 51 days to go till the election this campaigns knows that the road to 60 seats in the US Senate runs right through Nebraska.

I’m here with Scott’s campaign manager Joe Zepecki, and we’d like to respond to you and wavpeac here.

All around the country we hear stories about citizens faced with foreclosure on their homes. Scott is committed to putting an end to predatory lending that takes advantage of homeowners and will close loopholes on foreign corporations that violate U.S. laws.

Scott knows we need to be vigilant enforcing our anti-trust laws.
