Ed Martin, GOP candidate for the 3rd Congressional Dist., will get a boost come 5 p.m., March  30, when Shane Osborne, Nebraska state treasurer, attends Martin’s town hall on veterans’ issues at south county’s Royal Orleans.  Osborne, who got ink this week in the Wall Street Journal, is not only a war hero, but the likely candidate to run against Sen. Ben Nelson in 2012. Osborne has been very vocal about the much talked-about Cornhusker kickback that Nelson negotiated in return for a yes vote on the health care reform bill.  Osborne calls it “the Cornhusker Casualty.”  Also, at the town hall will be Joe Frank, past national commander of the American Legion and John Cummerford, who is also on the Veterans Commission. Martin continues his rise in the polls seeking to unseat Russ Carnahan.
