I think it's because of the conservative nature of most people who live here. Not conservative politically (although most are) but conservative as in "don't rock the boat".
With that said we seem to be on a roll the last few years with regard to gun issues, so why not push it next session?

I've been trying to figure out Nebraska's political culture, but could not put my finger on it until your comment. Thanks.
Unfortunatley the populations centers (Omaha & Lincoln) are socialist. [Deleted lead-in to my stupid comment].
I'm all for pushing 2nd and 10th Ammendment legislation next session!...lets push while we have the momentum.

"I've been wondering if federal government farm aid has something to do with the political leanings of the state as well."
Ya' think ????? As an independant business owner (i.e. no bail out opportunities for me) don't get me started. While on vacation last week, I stopped at the local convienance store a couple of miles from my rural home. Looked like a new pick-up dealership in the parking lot what with all the local "poor" farmers shootin' the bull at 0830.
Also, look at the 2006 election in the 3rd district. Look at who ran against Johanns in 2008. Here comes a ship in the night (Kleeb) and gets the large number of votes he did. As has been mentioned on this site and others, read "Liberty and Tyranny" by Mark Levine. Entitlement mindset. If this offends any of you....GOOD!!! It needs to be said. Folks we are in trouble.......
