Hagel-Bloomberg In '08?

Run, Chuck, Run!

Hagel-Bloomberg In '08? You Never Know, Senator Says Today's GOP Is Not The Party He Joined; Considers An Independent Ticket In '08 - CBS News:

The Republican Party has been 'hijacked' and led away from its core values, Chuck Hagel, the Republican Senator from Nebraska, said Sunday on Face The Nation.

Hagel, who is still considering his options for the 2008 race, left open the possibility of becoming an independent and sharing a ticket with New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg.

'I am not happy with the Republican Party today,' Hagel said. 'It's been hijacked by a group of single-minded almost isolationists, insulationists, power-projectors.'
