Sometime in the next few months Senator Ben Nelson will come out of the closet and announce that he is really a Republican. This will be treated as a game changing moment and a sign of the collapse of the Democratic party, even though it will still leave real Democrats with a majority in the House and the Senate.

Guess what folks, Nelson is already there as shown by his health care antics and his announcement today that he will vote against the President's nominee for the National Labor Relations Board because he is concerned that this nominee will weaken his own state's laws against union organizing - these are called Right to Work Laws by those who wish to obscure the truth.
