Kay... time to resign...

The Waco Tribune sez Kay should resign even though they like her candidacy (link). Excerpt follows...

Initially, Hutchison said she’d leave the Senate last autumn to devote herself to what promises to be a grueling, combative campaign across one of the largest, most populous states in the nation. Then she said she’d stay till the health care debate was resolved.

This week, Hutchison reaffirmed a more nuanced and recent position — that she won’t leave the Senate till her March 2 primary battle with Perry is decided. She also acknowledges that she’ll miss at least some Senate votes, though she says John Cornyn, our state’s junior senator, is up to the task of sufficiently representing Texas.

Which isn’t exactly convincing in our eyes. Cornyn is busy heading up the national strategy to elect more Republicans to the Senate. The irony is that his fellow senator’s indecision has caused plenty of frustration and false starts by those who would seek Hutchison’s post if she truly resigns.

In short: The candidates seem to be putting politics above constituents.

I think Kay has jumped the proverbial shark as a senator... especially now that she claims she will devote every waking moment to campaigning...

It is time to resign Kay... let someone start building seniority as you have said in the past... let Texas have a dynamic person who is engaged actively in the debate in Washington and can be on the same page as Big John Cornyn and other Republicans not someone who votes with the Democrats much too often on critical issues...

Resign Kay. You know that your current path is politics, and no results...

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.
