Kay rips Rick, sez she wants those newspaper endorsements...

In Lubbock yesterday Kay launched a new line of attack on Rick... attacking his decision to spurn the newspaper editorial board meetings in 2010... I have written two blogs on this already because it is really huge news in reality (link) (link). If more Republicans do what Rick is doing then we will see a much better news media in short order...

Kay disagrees and has said she is seeking newspaper endorsements (link). Excerpt follows...

"I think it's indicative of the whole approach he takes to government," Hutchison said after she talked to shoppers at a South Lubbock supermarket.

She would meet with newspaper editorial boards considering endorsements, she added, and criticized Perry's decision not to.

"I mean, what is he afraid of?" she asked.

Perry campaign spokesman Mark Miner was dismissive.

"Unlike Sen. Hutchison, Gov. Perry has a record cutting taxes, balancing budgets and improving education, and travels around the state every day talking about those issues," Miner said.

Kay can't help herself can she? She again is playing right into Rick's strategy. He is Texas versus her Washington. He is new media versus her old media...

Kay and her peeps though are probably thinking this is like Peyton Manning sitting out the Super Bowl... they are licking their chops seeing the light ahead... thinking how easy it will be to get the endorsements of the big newspapers...

The only problem with that is Republicans do not trust the msm... and Rick's peeps have seen something out there that makes them not want to seek the endorsement of these traditional media outlets... in fact it almost seems like they are working hard to not get the newspaper endorsements...

Some newspapers will probably endorse Rick now just to spite him...

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.
