Kay "concerned" about Rick's unemployment decision.

Kay and Rick are both speaking today to the Texas Daily Newspaper Association.

Kay told the group that she was "concerned" about Rick's unemployment decision (link). Excerpt follows:

AUSTIN, Texas — Gubernatorial candidate Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison says Gov. Rick Perry should be looking for ways to accept $550 million in unemployment fund stimulus money but without committing the state to future federal mandates.

She told reporters at a Texas Daily Newspaper Association meeting Monday there may be a way to do that. She said Perry should be looking at every avenue to keep employers from facing higher unemployment taxes next year.

Perry faces Hutchison in the 2010 Republican primary. He recently rejected the federal money that would rescue the struggling unemployment insurance fund. He said it would commit the state to expanding jobless benefits.

Lawmakers call the move politically motivated.

Perry's aides did not immediately respond to Hutchison's remarks.

Kay, give us something to work with here. Do you disagree with Rick's decision, do you agree with it, or are you "concerned"? What does that even mean, concerned... We need some campaign friction here, Kay. Rick versus Kay needs sparks.

There is definitely more to come on this story. How will Rick respond in his speech later today? Will Kay be asked what Rick should do specifically?
