OK folks, remember the Ak-Sar-Ben plan, we will get Hagel to think he has a chance at the nomination because the MSM loves him so much. He can't run for Pres and Senate at the same time here.
HAGEL FOR PRESIDENT -- (til after the first primary of course)
You know he might just be vain enough to go for it!!
HAGEL FOR PRESIDENT -- (til after the first primary of course)
Why can't Hagel run for President and Senate at the same time? Lieberman did. Just because Bob Dole didn't (he even stepped down from the Senate) I don't think there's a rule, and Hagel doesn't even have the integrity of Joe Lieberman, let alone a Bob Dole.
No, I think the path to Hagel's demise may come through the Kerry campaign aid that he hired. There have been very good arguments put forward on this thread that this guy could be the source for both the NSA and the SWIFT leaks. What would that do for his presidential or senatorial prospects?
