Sen. John McCain, prominent among the Washington ranks who have questioned former Sen. Chuck Hagels suitability for the top Defense Department post, said Sunday he will not exert his power to block Hagels nomination.
No, he told CNN when asked directly whether he would block the nomination in the Senate. I plan to make a judgment as to whether I think hes appropriate to be Secretary of Defense or not.
Each senator has the power to prevent a nomination from advancing to the floor, and one of McCains close colleagues, Sen. Lindsey Graham, has suggested he would put President Barack Obamas nominee to lead the CIA on hold while awaiting answers on the U.S. Consulate attack in September in Benghazi, Libya.
McCain said he does not plan to block that nomination or that of John Brennan for the CIA, either. He said he does have questions for both.

McCain, once again illustrating what is wrong with RINOs.
what an idiot.
IMO, McLame needs a few million calls to his sewer hole in DC.
“McCain, vocal with reservations toward Hagel, wont block nomination”
So what the f**k good is McCain then? None.
Just F$%^ing retire...and shut the hell up, McStalin!!
Replace him with a lab mouse.
The lab mouse would actually accomplish something and be less annoying.
John McPain - “I’ll vote for him even though I know he’ll be a disaster because it’s the way I roll(over) as a renegade without a clue”.
yet again, McCain the enabler of the Usurper
Wet spaghetti has more stiffness than McCain.
The Club will always support one of its own... always...
“I wanna be one of the Cool Kids. How do I be one of the Cool Kids?!”
That is the mentality of Rinos in a nutshell.
And why they sell us out to play paddy cake with the Dems at every chance they get, as you said.
Sen. McCain -”Present!”
McVain believes in the reverse Teddy Roosevelt doctrine: “Speak Loudly and Carry a Wet Noodle.”
Our typical government.Just another of the many reasons why I’m done participating in the fraudulent voting process. Whatever they say they will do different when they get to D.C.
Hagel is one of the boy’s, one of the fraternity—of course McLame will not block him.
Not only that McLame will go out of his way to help the traitor John Kerry be SOS.
Arizona voters should have done us all a favor last election and gotten rid of the thoroughly Brainwashed and now senile McLame.
Then why bother saying anything at all, McCain? If you have nothing substantive to offer, STFU.
Gee I am shocked. Now you know why you were not elected Presient McPanzy. Every time this old loon opens his mouth he makes his ignorant daughter a bit smarter.
John McCain.....he’s there working hard for you!
do i really need the /s..?
