Krist for governor?

(1/3) > >>

Kendahl:
I just received an e-mail from Bob Krist's gubernatorial campaign begging for a donation. I recognize his name but that's all. A search of NFOA's web site produced only one thread which discussed his appointment by former governor Heineman to replace Mike Friend. An internet search turned up the web site votesmart.org that contains his answers to a long list of questions. The answers date from 2010 and they complain that he has refused to answer their questions since then. At that time, he claimed to support the death penalty and assisting federal officials in enforcing immigration laws and, with the exception of background checks for all sales at gun shows, appeared to be strongly pro-gun.

Two questions:

* How has he behaved over the past seven years?
* Would he be better for us than Pete Ricketts?

Following.  About all I know about him is he left the Republican Party to run as a third-party candidate.  And unless I'm reading/remembering it wrong, he did not help gun owners on LB68.  The only 'yes vote' I can find is on a Chambers motion to return to committee.
The LB68 thread is here: http://nebraskafirearms.org/forum/index.php/topic,16608.0.html
I can't find any positive information about Krist in that thread, on initial look through.

I would never vote for him.  He's no Republican. Hates guns. I'm sure more people will chime in.

Before he ran this current election, he was seen at Heath Mello's election day party when he ran for Omaha mayor.

ETA: he voted LB68 out of Committee, but EC was gone that day. When EC found out, Krist wanted to get it pulled back to Committee because he didn't read/understand the bill. Same for Morfeld.
