Still no word when the Senate Armed Services Committee will vote on Chuck Hagel's nomination to Secretary of Defense.

The committee's chairman says they hoped to hold a vote this week, but so far it hasn't been scheduled.

Senator Carl Levin says the committee's review isn't complete.

There has been some concern over Hagel's performance during the question and answer sessions.

Levin says he intends to schedule a vote as soon as possible.
