"I'm very upset with John with some of the things he's been saying. And I can't get into the psychoanalysis of it. But I believe that John is smarter than some of the things he is saying. He is, he understands it more. John is a man who reads a lot, he's been around the world. I want him to get above that and maybe when he gets into the general election, and becomes the general election candidate he will have a higher-level discourse on these things."
Sen. Chuck Hagel, speaking in Washington tonight, according to the Huffington Post. Sen. Hagel also bestowed on Obama many encomiums.
