Last night (Monday) was the last time Republican Deb Fischer and Democrat Bob Kerrey will appear together before the November 6th election. On stage at NET, Nebraska's U-S Senate candidates disagreed about most things; Kerrey saying Fischer's support for massive federal cuts might win her political points, but it would hurt veterans, seniors and the military while increasing unemployment. Fischer said Kerrey's pledge for a constitutional amendment to make congress nonpartisan would be difficult to achieve. Kerrey criticized Fischer for "sloganeering" without specifics while Fischer argued that Kerrey's proposals are unrealistic. Polls show Fischer, a rancher and state senator, leading Kerrey, a former governor and U.S. senator who moved back to Nebraska to run for Senate.
