Hutchison making Washington step on path to Austin
WASHINGTON — Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison, R-Texas, is harnessing the powers of incumbency in Congress to wage a two-front campaign in the nation's capital and in Texas to unseat Gov. Rick Perry, a fellow Republican.
I think in a lot of ways she is playing right into Rick's hands by staying in Washington, but she also is gaining a lot of perks from the job that will be hard for her to leave behind... being able to deliver earmarks to each city, each university, each region, and things of this nature, make her DC incumbency a very potent political weapon...

Hey now, campaign characters. Be nice. I know a lot of you on both sides, so I don't want any overly foul language, personal attacks on anyone other than the candidates themselves, or other party fouls. I will moderate the heck out of you if you start breaking the bounds of civility.
