N.C. Sen. Kay Hagan on Health Care, Obama and 'Jobs, Jobs, Jobs'
By Mary C. Curtis - Politics DailyNorth Carolina Sen. Kay Hagan supports health care reform, the president and getting the job done in Afghanistan. Democrat Hagan, who ran a smart campaign to defeat Republican incumbent Elizabeth Dole last year, continues to cover all the bases.
