...to vote for Kay Bailey Hutchison, perhaps...
Former President George H.W. Bush became the third national figure to endorse U.S. Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison’s bid for Texas governor Friday, following former Secretary of State James Baker earlier this week and former Vice President Dick Cheney last November.
Yep, that's right -- KBH snagged the endorsement of milquetoast drug-war and assault weapons ban supporter George H.W. Bush, perhaps the worst Republican candidate for president until they brought us Bob Dole. I thought it was curious that the reporter mentioned the number of high-profile endorsements KBH has gotten compared to the number Perry has gotten, among them former NYC mayor Rudolph Giuliani and ex-RNC chairman Haley Barbour. With national politics having gotten the United States to the point it is now, perhaps that should be an indicator of for whom NOT to vote. Nothing against Perry, really, but it seems to me that both he and Kay Bailey Hutchison aren't much more than Party apparatchiks. I have to wonder why no one's taking a closer look at Debra Medina...
