Former Sen. Bob Kerrey (D) is scheduled on Saturday to headline a fundraising dinner for the Nebraska Democratic Party.

The Morrison-Exon Dinner, set for Omaha, will also feature a joint news conference with Kerrey and Sen. Ben Nelson (D). Kerrey, who is now the president of The New School University in New York, has been rumored as a possible Senate candidate in 2008, but said in a newspaper report that there is little chance of him running.
