Hagel would be in deep trouble with his base if he votes against the GOP leadership.

Hagel is a McCain-handmaiden but cannot stray too far from his conservative Nebraska constituency. He's all talk with the MSM and then votes reliably conservative on the floor.

Pretty smart strategery, actually, albeit not too honest. The Left values symbolism, the Right substance.
