Catty. Chatty. And Occasionally Trashy.

Run, KBH, Run!

Senator KBH has decided not to seek a higher position in the Senate than her current number 4 post. She had floated a consideration to do so after Lott announced his resignation. Unfortunately, she was the only one that thought that was a good idea. Lamar Alexander of Tennessee and RaymondRichard Burr of North Carolina have ambitious plans that will be far better executed than KBH.

Ok, let me have a sip of coffee and let's discuss. Texas is this big ass state...red and solidly voting Republican (except for the 39% Perry win). We have two Republican Senators. We are one of the largest contributors to the feds for the rest of the country.

Why shouldn't our senators be the top GOP leaders? Tennessee? North Carolina? Texans take shits bigger than Tennessee. I say if we're going to be stuck with crappy GOP leadership, we may as well lead.

So, I guess what I'm saying to Republican voters is that if you're going to elect somebody then why don't you elect somebody that has the potential to "go all the way" and not a bad wig wearing "No. 4."

KBH is not on the national scene nearly enough. Cornyn is, but that's because he's a dumbass. Message to voters of Texas: DO BETTER.
