incredible spin from Hassett on mortgage rates being well above 7%: "When the economy is growing really high, then longer-term interest rates can sometimes go up not because of inflation, but because like all these businesses have a high demand for capital because they're building factories."

The Nebraska Farm Bureau is still "neutral" on the Governor's race and isn't endorsing Pillen. This is a big change from their endorsement of Pillen just four years ago. The Farm Bureau is known for nearly exclusively endorsing Republicans in agricultural states across the country.
