Well, she isn't retiring to the governor's mansion.
The Rove-Bush-Hutchison Machine didn't win their 2010 primary challenge against Rick Perry.
Now Texas GOP establishment campaign cash is going to Romney 9-1 Perry.
When Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison refused to campaign with GOP candidates challenging female Democratic Party Senate incumbents, there really was nothing left for anyone to say about her conservative principles.
To: All; shield
When Perry turned Republican, he left some helpful Democrats behind ...."Democrats had ruled the state Agriculture Department for a hundred years. Perry immediately ejected Hightower loyalists and Democratic operatives from the agency. He pledged to cut the departments staff by 20 percent and scale down the number of regional offices around the state."...

She needs to call Nancy Pelosi’s Botox doctor. She is in serious need of a facial fix.

“ejected Hightower loyalists”
Hightower was one piece of work. He even had a radio syndication before air america that would rival the best put out by Pravda. I recall one of his loyal listeners, of which there were perhaps 20, calling in and telling him to go for the limosine solution which was if you see a limo, pull the guy out and shoot him. That was in line with this clowns politics, to the left of Lenin.

What's not to lie about KBH? You caved on every critical bit of legislation to the clintoons, and feigned a few conservative issues when it didn't matter so you could still fake the R after your name and lie to us Texans. I for one, am glad I don't have to hold my nose and vote for your ass anymore.
P.S. Good riddance, and I hope this is the last we hear from you.

I think the main reason she is retiring is she would probably draw a real conservative opponent and most likely lose. She has been a major disappointment and I for one won't miss her. I hope we can attract a true conservative to replace her...Jeb Hensarling comes to mind.

Im not going to backtrack on anything I said,
Well at least she is sticking to her principles and not flip flopping which conservatives hate. I don’t know much about her but I give her props with not back tracking.
To: Cincinatus' Wife
KBH in my memory has never gone out on any limb, to any greater or lesser extent, for any deeply conservative candidate or serving conservative legislator. Her pro-Choice stand may be mostly what is behind her reluctance, but she is always been noticeably “establishment”, and a great disappointment on so many occasions. Totally self-serving is her mode of operation.

To: Cincinatus' Wife
When KBH decided to run for governor, she originally said that she would RESIGN her Senate seat to devote all her energies to the race. She quickly backed off that promise. Her campaign was dead-in -the -water from that day on. She obviously couldn’t be trusted to keep any promises.
