Chuck Hagel was on Rachel Maddow last night and he went all out against the Republican Party, from putting a lot of blame for the economic mess on their shoulders, to defending Obama from Cheney’s recent comments.

Michael Steele has asked all the top staffers at the RNC to resign. Maybe he wants to give jobs to the old Bush White House staff?
