Senator Ben Nelson Denying Party Change Speculation

Nebraska’s Ben Nelson, who votes often with Republicans, is pushing back against speculation that he might change parties if Republicans win the Senate in November.  (h/t Political Wire).  Joe Klein suggested that with big Republican fall wins, he could be up for grabs.

Asked for comment, however, Nelson’s office “stressed that the senator remains a committed Democrat who, despite bucking the party on a host of political fronts (most recently, Supreme Court nominee Elena Kagan’s confirmation), is not interested in a party switch.”
