Is that why Hagel is quitting? I had heard he would have a hard time getting re-elected.

That may well be, but only he knows for sure.

We have many rules here at FR. I have an additional one that I observe. I have resolved never to let Senator Chuck Hagel be named without pointing out that he is an imbecile.

It is good for the US that the voters of Nebraska have come to that conclusion and that his imbecility is moderate enough that he realized that they knew he was an imbecile.
