Hijacked by isolationists, insulationists, power-projectors. Can’t quite picture what an isolationist power-projector would be.

Chuck and Bloomie? No, really, this is an experiment to see if it’s possible for a major ticket to garner exactly zero votes, isn’t it?

"I am not happy with the Republican Party today," Hagel said. "It's been hijacked by a group of single-minded almost isolationists, insulationists, power-projectors."

lol.....isolationist power-projectors?

There are many things wrong with the Republican Party today (most notably, fakers like Chuck Hagel and Michael Bloomberg), but I hadn’t considered the problem we have with those nefarious “insulationists and power-projectors.”

Bad news if he does. Bloomberg's not a real Republican.

It's a sign Hagel might be going the John Anderson independent route, though he has a very different personality and appeal from Anderson's.

Sounds like we are going to get to observe some self-realignment of the body politic. It has been a long time in coming.

A few people are fed up with the leftward rush of the Dims. RINOs just need to find a new home. Conservatives need to decide if they want to fight for the Constitution we have or the Constitution in Exile.

With the slow bleed of the MSM, the rise of talk radio and blogs, the Left is getting frantic and shrill to get their message out now that they are no longer the gatekeepers of information and the only moderators of public debate.

I just read a poll that stated 45% of respondents said they supported abortion and 50% thought it was morally wrong. In the wake of Katrina and VaTech, we have had an important public awakening about the practical necessity of the RKBA. Yet, even amongst conservative youth an increasing number don’t see any moral issue with cohabitation and conceiving children without the benefit of marriage.

A Left that is hell-bent on going evermore to the left benefits conservatives because it makes plain that liberalism is a mental disorder. Commentators in the MSM repeatedly complain that, with blogs and talk radio, that the society is getting “polarized”, as if the blogs and Rush Limbaugh caused it. They have the cart before the horse. Society is not “polarized”, what we are seeing is most of society waking up and finding their non-liberal voice.

That the Left now has to resort to reimposing the Fairness Doctrine by force of law (and thereby by the credible threat of armed government agents), shows just who is polarized.

May we live in interesting times.

HAGEL HAS JUMPED THE SHARK!!!!

The one danger of him running as an independent is that he may win Nebraska. He must be at least somewhat popular there to keep winning the nomination and the general election. If he won Nebraska, the GOP would lose a few more electoral votes, and we cannot afford to lose those votes. If Bloomberg were at the top of the ticket, I don't think there would be a danger, but Hagel at the top might swing that state.

"The Republican Party has been "hijacked" and led away from its core values, Chuck Hagel, the Republican Senator from Nebraska, said Sunday on Face The Nation."

What are Hagle's core values? I have no idea, I wonder if he even knows what his core values are.
