Not in my opinion. Nebraska needs a whole fresh start.
I think Byron York may have pinpointed a major leak. I have always suspected Hagel of leaking a few secrets. Maybe that is why he hired this dem dummy. He is so press hungry he will do anything to suck up to the media. Of course, that is just my opinion.
Follow the link that anita posted, folks. It's to an article in NRO by Byron York titled:
The Kerry Campaigner on the Republican Staff of the Senate Intelligence Committee
It's real and the staffer works for Hagel.
There are RINOs and then there are RINOs.
Just as there are traitors and then there are traitors.
"Did you say Hagel? Is Chuck Hagel really a republican?"
Some of you may be familiar w this site, but I just found it and think it's pretty cool. Here's a link to Chuckie's voting record by category and issues within each:

Here are Hagel's and his fellow Senator from Nebraska's American Conservative Union Voting Records. I find this interesting in that many consider Nelson to be a moderate, so I thought his might be slightly higher, though it did go up 8 points last year over the previous year, probably because he's up for re-election this year. I also thought Hagel's might be lower for last year, given the way he talks on the shows (pseudo maverick or McLame-Lite), but it actually improved from the previous year by 9 points.
