Is it a game changer?
It depends on who is talking, but clearly the decision by former Nebraska Republican U.S. Sen. Chuck Hagel to endorse Bob Kerrey is a coup for the Democrat.
Hagel is expected to cross party lines today and back Kerrey in his U.S. Senate race against Republican State Sen. Deb Fischer.
Hagel and Kerrey served together in the Senate. Perhaps more important, both are Vietnam War veterans who developed a strong friendship.
Hagel is expected to make the announcement in Omaha, according to a spokesman for the Kerrey campaign.

How popular is last democratic candidate Obama there?
U.S. Sen. Chuck Hagel to endorse Bob Kerrey
RINOS are worse then Lib’s, Libs are honest about hating America.
Anyone who had doubts about kicking Luger out can look at Hagel and feel good about themselves,Luger would be standing next to them endorsing this moron.
“Hagel is expected to cross party lines today”
Hagel crossed the party lines years ago.
Instincts of a RINO
Wake up, Nebraska. Vote both of these nitwit bums out.
Doesn’t matter Kerry is behind 12-15 points, (despite the one already debunked poll that had him down “only” 3). The reason he dropped out of politics back in the 1990’s was because he had become too liberal for Nebraska and was told he would lose in a landslide if he ran for reelection. So he went to New York City and taught at a liberal university. Nebraska is NOT going to vote for a liberal Carpetbagger...
Hagel and Kerry are both unfit to represent Nebraska
Deb Fisher will win a big victory.
How nice for all to see...two revelations (Kerrey is still Kerrey) for the price of one.
Now of course it’s not a revelation to those who knew Hagel all along, but this is more raw, undeniable evidence of it. To stand there next to the NB pretender, Kerrey, and call for him to be put back in office, to defeat a true Nebraskan and Republican and help keep the Senate Harry Reid’s and Obama’s, and Obamacare
and bankrupting coal etc in place, is new as to the blatant extent of it.
I would like to be nearby as a protestor when it goes down, and interrupt with a shouted question to the two “former military” comrades:
WHAT ABOUT BENGHAZI AND FOUR LEFT BEHIND TO DIE?????
This arsehole is way more RAT than RINO.
They are already out. Neither are current senators. I think you mean don’t vote them back in. (Though Hagel isn’t running for anything... hope he isn’t planning on an ambassadorship from a Romney Admin.)
Say 'bye-bye' again, Bob...
... and Chuck too, ...soon enuff...
jmho...
Ummmm...Hagel is no longer one of our senators. He was booted a while ago. Unfortunately, some “republicans” in the state helped mr. cornhusker kickback ben nelson to get into office and now he is on the way out as well which is why dirty harry reid made a kickback deal with kerrey to run in order to hold the senate seat.
Nebraska conservatives don’t take upChuck Hagel seriously. At the end of the day, kerrey will go back to his “home” state of NY and hopefully along with hagel and nelson will stay the hell out of Nebraska forever.
Good to hear.
Wow!! That should cut her lead down to 15% from 16% . . .
Hagel is not just a former Senator, he's a former Republican. He's also a former floating turd in the punchbowl. He's taken on so much mass that he has now sunk to the bottom.
Like Colin Powell and Warren Buffet.
Im not missing Rino Hagel at all Enjoy that no work slot at Georgetown teaching future traitors
