Just a though... maybe if Obama gives Hagel and McCain positions in his administration.. they could get replaced by Dems... what's the process in those two states for resigning Senators?

1. If accepting a role in Obama's administration |
|
meant a filibuster proof Democratic majority in the Senate, no Republican Senator would accept.
Not. Gonna. Happen.

8. Hagel is already out as you've been told, but I wouldn't be surprised to see him get an appointment |

of some kind in the Obama administration. They got on well, and Hagel accompanied him in his Middle-Eastern tour.
