That’s the question I would like to see answered.

The gov appoints a temp replacement until an election can be held to fill the remainder of the term.

Her quitting now would give the Democrats a filibuster-proof majority once again.

How do you figure? Perry would appoint a republican replacement until the special election is held. If you think a democrat would win that seat today, then the democrat will win the seat in 2012. However, this ain't exactly a safe haven for democrats right now.

McConnel and republican senate leaders aided in the passage of the healthcare bill. McConnel should have made the democrats read the bill on the senate floor so everyone would have known what was in the bill. Also, it takes two votes from the minority party to get a bill out of committee, so the bill should have never made it to the floor. Look for republicans to support Cap & Trade and Immigration reform.

YES! YES! YES! and YES!

Thank you for bringing this up.

This aiding and abetting constantly flies under the radar.

We have got to clean all RINO Republicans out of Congress as well as the RNC.

Not a problem John!

JD needs to ask Juan that very question. Time to rest on your laurels McCain, meager as they may be.

Pro-choice KBH needs to go. We’ll be just fine without her.

UPDATE:

Hutchison to remain in Senate through 2012

March 31, 2010
U.S. Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison will announce this morning that she plans to complete her term rather than resign early as she had planned, sources told us.

Hutchison had wanted to make the announcement in Dallas, but U.S. Sens. John Cornyn of Texas and Mitch McConnell of Kentucky were planning to be in San Antonio today for a National Republican Senatorial Committee fundraiser so the event was set for this morning at Landmark Aviation.

Hutchison, who was first elected to the Senate in a special election in 1993, won re-election to a third full term in 2006. Her term runs through 2012.

+1 ... amen brother, Perry should appoint Williams and give him a leg up! Clueless Kay can go home now and never be missed, or maybe she’ll find her calling at the Republican Mainstreet Coalition or some such Rockefeller/NWO group...

ymmv

How about this one?

It’s always tease, tease, tease...
