Republican Sen. Chuck Hagel said Friday he would consider serving as Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama's running mate if asked, but he doesn't expect to be on any ticket. Hagel's vocal criticism of the Bush administration since the 2003 invasion of Iraq has touched off speculation that if Obama were to pick a Republican running mate, it might be Hagel. Hagel said in an interview with The Associated Press that after devoting much of his life to his country - in the Senate and the U.S. Army - he would have to consider any offer.
(Hagel says he'd consider VP offer from Obama . Hagel saying this proves his heart is no longer with the Republican party or the right. By the way I am pretty sure Obama will not win my home state of Nebraska with or without Hagel. Hagel is no longer backed by most in Nebraska. He has said he might not back McCain because of his stand on the war yet he might think about being a VP for a man who is on the radical left.)
