How many more Professional Bloviators (a.k.a., Senators) are going to announce for 08?
Thank our Founding Fathers that they only subjected us with 2 from each state.
He doesn't need to win to clean up. He'll get lots of favorable publicity from the MSM, he will be invited on all the talk shows, he can write some books (published by Simon & Schuster), and he'll be invited to give speeches (paid ones).
Some people are just so overly sensitive. I guess if my candidate had the flaws of a Hagel, I guess I'd be a little groutchy too.
As long as Hagel running for president means he won't be be running for reelection as Nebraska's senator, I'm all for it. As you well know, he is not a real popular guy in Nebraska anymore.
Good riddance, Chuckles the RINO clown.

Chuck Hagel: The MSMs favorite "Republican" ala "...a Republican source states Bush is all wet!!..."
Wow, and here I thought the three zeros stood for Hagel, McCagel, and Chafee.
What could possibly make this guy think he has a remote chance to be president other than his over inflated ego? Why wouldn't the voters vote for the real thing rather, like his hero... John MacaCain, if we wanted a "Liberal-Republican / media whore?"
That'll never happen again!
"Chuck Hagel Tests the Presidential Waters"
Kinda like the Titantic, tested the iceberg?
If you read the article, you'd realize that the liberal media are not going to be friendly to Hagel at all. This is a liberal, anti-Hagel article. I'm sure there's plenty more where it came from.
He must have his head up his you know what. Hagel, if you have millions to piss away, why not donate it to the poor and needy LEGAL citizens of these United States?
Don't forget -- Cindy Sheehan has expressed her admiration of our fine senator. ;')
I think Chuck needs to Know one thing and that thing is its time for him to get a real job. Stop sucking off the Taxpayer.He's Not worth the money he's paid.
I'm not completely convinced. I'm not only embarassed by UpChuck Hagel, but enraged by his groveling rino politics. The problem is that many of the same repubs here in the state who supported Hagel also supported Ben Nelson. Nelson was a mediocre governor and is not much better as a senator. The bottom line is that he is still a dem who despite his words to the contrary still votes as a dem. That republicans of this state would vote for him over a "rich" republican who paid his own way rather than being (bought and) paid for by outside interests or the republican party is a potential indicator of whether or not (I believe not) they would throw out Hagel.
Libertarianism has far more in common with classical liberalism than classical conservatism. Modern Libertarian Party core positions have far more in common with the Democrat Party than with the Republican Party.
Maybe we can convince him to move to Minnesota, you can have him.
To paraphrase an old polka lyric -- "I don't want him, you can have him he's too left for me - hey!"
I can see the logic in this. After all, weren't we all named "Person of the Year" by Time magazine?
I'd run, too...but my wife won't let me.
