The Republicans never had the votes to stop Hagel in committee. Hopefully on the floor, it’s another story.

It’s a matter of a filibuster, and that’s a matter of only 5 republicans joining with the democrats to support Hagel.

Pick 5 rinos who aren’t up for reelection for 4 years + and you’ve got a confirmation.

McCain sounds like he’ll be one of them already.

All Obama nominees are severely flawed. ESPECIALLY Hagel.

They didn’t want Obumbo to have this to bitch about tonight as well.
