"Sen. Chuck Hagel of Nebraska on Wednesday became the nation's most prominent Republican officeholder to publicly question whether Sarah Palin has the experience to serve as president," the Omaha World-Herald reports.
Among the things Hagel told the newspaper about Alaska Gov. Palin:
"She doesn't have any foreign policy credentials. ... You get a passport for the first time in your life last year? I mean, I don't know what you can say. You can't say anything."
"It's a stretch to, in any way, to say that she's got the experience to be president of the United States."
Hagel, who is leaving the Senate at the end of the year, has said he has no plans to endorse either Republican presidential nominee John McCain or Democratic nominee Barack Obama.
Guess he didn't have much to lose so he could actually say what he thought as opposed to the party line. Wonder how many other republicans feel the same way. Oh I know she is not running for president, but didn't McPain once say having a vp who could step into those shoes was one of his criteria?

Hagel is putting country first by exposing Sarah as a bad VP choice. I love Hagel's direct style. He's also a maverick of the GOP! McCain could learn a lot from him. It would be different if McCain wasn't a cancer survivor or over 70...the age his dad died. But the stress of the campaign alone could make his health worse. Sarah should not be in charge of the US. How irresponsible of McCain.
Not really.
I don't see the correlation. Military service in and of itself

WBS????
"they slam her for no foreign policy because she just got a passport a year ago, but they give Obama a pass and he has never had any military experience."
