Okay.....today's the big guy's big day.

www.electstevedawes.com

There's not much going on in the Nebraska primary today, other than the tight three-way race for the Republican nomination to replace the retiring E. Benjamin Nelson (D) in the Senate.

And since Nebraska's a pretty small state, with no corrupt blue machines (other than a very pale one in Omaha) to muck up the count, it should go quick and fast; I anticipate we'll all know how the big guy did by circa 10 p.m. central time.

No point in looking for numbers prior to 8 p.m. central time, as Nebraska law prohibits release of the official numbers until all polls in the state are closed.  This isn't a legacy of the 2000 presidential race; it goes clear back to 1960, and our resentment that Cook County was able to manufacture votes out of thin air once they learned how the votes were going in downstate Illinois.

It's very odd; the states that least need strict election rules have them, and the states that most need such rules, don't have them.

There's four candidates for two slots on the November ballot in the big guy's race; the top two of the four advance to the general election.  There's two (R)s, one (L), and the big guy.

My guess is that the establishment Republican (the incumbent) and the Tea Party Republican are going to end up the top two, to duke it out in November, whatever their differences are.

It's too bad about the (L) candidate, who would make an excellent (R), but as long as he persists in his pipe-dream about an alternative to the two-party system, well, he must accept his fate.  It's been obvious the (L) candidate has worked the hardest, and possible that the (L) candidate wants the job more, than the other three candidates.

But there are penalties to trying to work outside the system, trying to upset the Natural Order of Things.

My biggest fear remains that the big guy could possibly end up in third place--or, God forbid, second--simply because of his name.  Party affiliations are not on the ballot, just the names.  And "Steve Dawes" is a rather friendly, informal, innocuous name.  It might make voters think the candidate is some obscure third-string running-back from the Nebraska football team 30 years ago, or it might remind voters of a fondly-remembered history teacher from their high school.

And so they'll fill in that blank.

It's too bad the big guy doesn't have a real name that truly and accurately reflects what he is, something like "Steve Tse-tung" or "Steve Beria" or "Steve Kaganovich" or "Steve Pol Pot" or "Steve Guevera."

We'll see.

At any rate, this thread goes "live" at 8 p.m. central time, to keep all interested parties informed of how the voting went.

Every time I see references to mini-tacos, I realize there is a terrible joke in there involving Bridget the Midget, Steve Dawes, and a bear. However, something buried in my subconscious keeps denying me the ability to assemble that joke - which is probably a good thing.

-Some jokes were never meant to be told.

And of course I'm sure his opponent in the election would pump even more time and energy into illuminating the world about the big guy, his real stance on the issues.

Well, each ward in Bellevue has circa 12,500 people.

If one subtracts those too young to vote, those too incompetent to vote, and those who don't care to vote, maybe the "max" will be circa 6-7,000 total, for all four candidates.

There are no high-profile Democrat contests; the only draw involves that for the Republican nomination for the U.S. Senate, and so it's reasonable to assume Republicans will turn out in force, as feelings are intense.

Okay, just for a quick review, in short-hand, some stereotyping.

Houghtaling, the incumbent, and current president of the city council, is the "establishment" GOP.

Carmichael is the "Tea Party" GOP.

Knebel is the Libertarian (capital L).

The big guy is, well, the big guy.

Well, actually with the current 78%, while he's running ahead of the Magic One in (D) votes, there appears to be some residual resentment.  Now, 78% is pretty damned good, but there is resentment, about how Kerrey screwed over a true-blue Democrat and got into the primary after he said he wouldn't.

My candidate's Deborah Fischer of the Sandhills.

She was supposed to run a distant third.

I don't care which (R) wins, but I'd like to see her get it.  As the state votes move outward and westward, her own totals are bound to increase faster than the others' totals.

Gonna be a short night

There isn't much happening in Nebraska, other than the three-way repug race for the U.S. Senate, but what might be of interest is DU's own Omaha Steve, running for the city council in Bellevue.

there's four candidates, the top two vote-getters advancing to the election in november. Omaha Steve is up against a rich repug, a teabagger, and a ron paul wacko.

Omaha Steve is a dedicated union member, socialist, and ghost-hunter. he is committed to social justice, the rightment of wrongs, and freeing mumia.

Omaha Steve is blue all the way, deep blue, especially after his wife gets done thwacking him with the rolling-pin.

and there's so much of Omaha Steve to be blue, as shown when he enveloped DU's peace-loving heroine, cindy sheehan, in folds of fat and drenching sweat.

in his job, Omaha Steve knows shit, which is a handy discernment to have in politics, knowing what's shit and what's not.

it's only a minor race, but i encourage all DUers to check it out, and to cheer him on.

I, for one, am financially prepared if he wins knowing we'll have 4 more years of economic downturn.  You, on the other hand, will be worse off than you are now.  Should you get your wish, I'll tell you who'll be crying from 2012 to 2016, and it won't me.

Good on you to get the issues out to an otherwise clueless red state festering mentality. Hope to see you pull off another run next go-around, hopefully when the GOP is banned so progressives can actually run on issues, and just fighting the suppression of democracy as Houghtaling and Carmichael have disgustingly displayed.

But in a good note, you kicked the crap out of the stupefied Libertarian Knebel.

I thought he was running away with it BanTheGOP?    You will have to point me to articles and sections of his website where he actually professed his socialist roots (and where Houghtaling and Carmichael actually suppress democracy).

15. If at first you don't succeed, try, try again.

The poster above is right -- just getting the message out there is a real act of principle. Especially in fly-over country, where those on the right pride themselves on ignorance and regressive ways.

You're a winner, here, always!

Oh grasswire, you are all winners to us.  :)

16. Final numbers

My campaign is over. I failed to advance.

Scott Houghtaling 44.11%..569

Michael Knebel 9.53%..123

Steve Dawes 13.49%..174

Steven A. Carmichael 32.48%..419

The www.electstevedawes.com website accounted for a minimum of 246 people not voting for Socialist Steve which was enough to keep him out of second place.

BTW Steve, you did more than just fail to advance, you're a failure in life.

Putting it into perspective, even if his numbers were doubled, he would have still been an also ran.

I know nothing about Nebraska politics.

Should it scare me that he DIDN'T come in dead last?

Sitting way up here in New Hampshire watching the tide come and go every 6 hours, the sun rise on time and set on time, I have to wonder just what the Hell is going on with Nebraska  do the natives of Nebraska have any kind of natural clock work  other then the sun comes up and goes down???  Seasons change as do mine but not all ways the same each year.

I have been watching this man named Steve that feels deep in his heart that things should change among the human population to suit him.  Interesting man, all these ideas that he came up with but for some reason felt others should carry on his beliefs and at no time felt he had to sacrifice for his belief.

Steve is not one to put his family and fortune on the line as our founding fathers did to go against policy. We can see from his life style, that big TV that costs a bundle, just for him, not put the money into his campaign,.

Now I am wondering how Steve will handle his taxes due to loosing his bid.   Can he deduct all expenses from his taxes due to anything he paid for his campaign ???   Is the big TV included ??

 His clothing, costs to use a computer to use advertising for his campaign.?  The expenses of holding a rally in a bar and the cost of food--mini tacos and beer ?

Did this Steve ever really want to run for Anything ???? He rejected the ideas of those that could help him--{Frank is just one}

Sitting on the bank of the shore watching the tide come in and out, I feel we have a scamer of  portions who may be smarter then us in the ways to use our laws to their benefit.

He may have lost the election, but I bet he still has an erection when doing his taxes.
