When all is said and done, Texans are all hat and no cows. I don’t think they have the cajones of MA voters and will install KBH in the governor’s office. Just you see.
Your full of BS!
Kay will never be elected. We got a belly full of her long ago.
Bawney Fwank Cajones?
BTW, We all Know that Scott Brown is no conservative.
He sure beats A Kennedy but he is NO conservative.
Took ya 50 years to get rid of a Kennedy who murdered a girl and only because he died. You still have Kerry.
Yeah, Massachusetts is really hot stuff.
I agree with this author that all bets are off in this election year. He puts it this way:
Kronberg called this primary historical.
“The big deal for us in this election is that we have not had an exciting Republican primary since 1990,” said Kronberg.
Kronberg said that excitement could actually make these polls virtually worthless. Since pollsters contact people who have previously voted in a Republican primary, the thousands who are new participants haven’t been taken into account.
“We may see the Republican primary double and then all bets are off as to who the winner is,” said Kronberg.
Besides Independents, a formidable voting bloc this year is the “Tea Party.” The group of citizens frustrated with government has grown to more than 120 thousand people and that could represent more than 10 percent of TX Republican primary voters.
“The tea parties are really just the will of the people,” said Greg Holloway with the Tea Party Patriots .
And, being a “citizen candidate,” Debra Medina has found strong support in this group.
“I think people can see themselves in her shoes,” said Holloway. “If they were going to run, they might do some of the things she’s done as far as getting grassroots support.”
But, Holloway said not all tea partiers agree with Medina’s policies. In the group you’ll find Perry supporters as well as those who are backing Hutchison. But, one thing they all agree on is they are fed up with the way government is run now.
“We want a return to constitutional principles,” said Holloway.
As far as the poll goes, Hutchison’s camp issued this statement:
“The only poll that matters is the one on election day when Texans will face a choice between Rick Perry’s record of cronyism or Kay Bailey Hutchison’s plan for a strong Texas.”
But, with the numbers getting closer, Kronberg doesn’t rule out the possibility of a Perry/Medina face-off in an April 13 run-off election.
“You could make a case that she’s actually battling Hutchison for second place,” said Kronberg. “I would not dismiss that possibility simply because this is such an unconventional year.”

After finally getting the statewide exposure her campaign expense account cannot afford, Debra Medina has moved up in the polls after the two Republican gubernatorial debates.
You’ve got to be joking. MA is more socialist than Texas will ever be. KBH sucks and won’t win the primary, but even she is better than all those Kennedys, Horseface Kerry and RINO Romney.
