The Hotline has published the results of a new Myers Research and Strategic Services poll, conducted on behalf of the Nebraska Democratic Party, that shows only 42% of voters approve of Sen. Chuck Hagel's job performance, while 50% disapprove. Meanwhile, 40% approve of Attorney General Jon Bruning's job performance, and 37% disapprove.

The most surprising result is that Hagel's disapproval rating is highest among independents at 58%. Among Democrats, 53% approve of his job performance and 42%, while among Republicans, 36% approve and 47% disapprove.

So does Hagel. If more than one serious Republican challenges him, he'll almost assuredly win the nomination with a plurality of the vote.

Does Nebraska not have primary runoffs? In most states, it is required to have a majority of the vote in order to avoid a runoff.

If thinks he is toast in Nebraska he might try and go out by burning down any chance the GOP has at the white house.

What do you mean? So he might draw 1.02% of the vote from liberals who just happen to hate Hitlery. Who cares? With Fred on our ticket we'll destroy Hitlery by 8-10% popular and 40+ states in the electoral college.

And I might add that the only way Hagel even gets over 1% of the vote in his Indy run is IF he gets HEAVY funding from the likes of Bloomberg.

Hagel is beyond irrelevant.

Thing is, Jon Bruning has credibility problems. In the 1990’s, he was a Clinton-loving liberal who denounced Ronald Reagan.
