NEBRASKA STATE AUDITOR SWITCHES TO DEMOCRATIC PARTY

Kate Witek was the running mate of famed Cornhusker football coach Tom Osborne. They recently lost their bid for the Republican nomination for Lt. Gov. and Governor of Nebraska. She may have switched parties just so she could run for re-election as State Auditor, but she could have been like Joe Lieberman and run as an Independent. Instead, she opted to change her registration to Democrat.

The GOP lost its lock on the top state government offices this week when State Auditor Kate Witek jumped to the Democratic party just a few months after campaigning as Republican Tom Osborne's running mate in a failed gubernatorial bid.

"I got to the point where it seemed the Republican Party was only looking at controlling all the offices instead of looking at resolving all the problems challenging this state," Witek said in Friday's Lincoln Journal Star.


I think her statement could be applied to the nation pretty handily, don't you?
