WASHINGTON — Nebraska Attorney General Jon Bruning stopped by his hotel Wednesday during a break in the Supreme Court's health care arguments — and ran into former Sen. Bob Kerrey eating lunch in the hotel restaurant.

Bruning is the frontrunner in a crowded field vying to be the GOP nominee for Nebraska's open Senate seat, while Kerrey is the frontrunner on the Democrats' side.

The encounter was short but convivial, by Bruning's account. Kerrey suggested that he sit down for lunch, but Bruning said he had to get moving.

They ribbed each other over the court case and the Senate campaign.
