Of course. In the end, they all just go along to get along. They may be the world’s most exclusive club, but they are also the nation’s most despised.

What does it take to get Murkowski to signup as a ‘rat?

Oh good grief, you got played. Likewise, every leftist got played, too.
Hagel is pro-fracking and sits on Chevron’s Board of Directors. His key viewpoint is that the U.S. is safer by becoming less dependent on foreign oil imports.
0bama just conned the Greens into supporting fracking in the U.S.

If Charlie Manson were nominated he would be confirmed.

I disagree. The economy only GOP got played. How is the Defense Secretary going to impact the economy and fracking? The foreign policy problems, however, will be impacted by his new position.

This is VALIDATION that it is pretty much ONE BIG LOSERS CLUB.
Unqualified or inept, the mentality seems to be... "I'll support you as long as you support me."
My point: Ineptness begets MORE ineptness.

The Senate contrasts with the will of Americans on foreign policy, and serves instead, the will of a few special constituents: leaders in the paradigm of immorality.

Having Republicans spend a month tearing him up was useful as a way to drain him of that bipartisan cred; Denying his confirmation would have been better than merely 'useful'.

Hagel is one complete, flaming goofball. He probably reversed himself a dozen times in front of Congress, some of them on the fly. Cut down/defund our military and put this potatohead in charge of the DOD and we are walking a fine line towards tempting other nations to attack us.
We will regret this. 0bama won’t.

I send mine to the NRA and have told them so (twice).
The latest request for money survey asked what I would do differently to which I replied: “Tell Karl Rove to take a hike - he’s driving the Tea Party away from the process. The only time he’s ever won anything was by beating 2 weakling Dems and Gore was really close.”

89-10, as I’ve said all along.
The “confirmation after GOP puts up a strong fight” is just the WWE of politics.

Let’s all celebrate the ineptitude of our federal government, as exemplified by Chuck Hagel.
