Can a pro-draft candidate win?

I say no, which means the Republicans are completely morons if they nominate Hagel.

me neither. This is really the only issue that can change my vote to a Republican. If the Republican is anti-draft, I'd vote for them over a pro-draft Democrat, even if that Republican otherwise is as far right as Tom Coburn.

OK, maybe in that scenario I'd vote third party. But no one who advocates the draft will receive my vote, and will vote for a fairly reasonable Republican over someone who does in a heartbeat.
