Commentary said a while back that Guv Dude was driving the agenda in the Lone Star State’s GOP Primary. I was right. After getting bumped around by Dude’s handlers over her resignation, now Hutch is saying she doesn’t know when she will quit. She was supposed to quit this past summer, then in October, then in November….she is kind of looking silly. You have to hand it to Dude and his folks. They sure know how to jerk her chain. Heck, if Dude beats her next March, she may just stay in the U.S. Senate.

Over the past couple of seasons, Milo has called out Cheo for not arguing a few close calls at first. Come to think of it, I’ve never seen Cheo show any emotion on close calls. Stay tuned as skipper interviews begin today.

Concur!
Sounds like the Parker campaign is desperate and will attack anything that moves. I have witnessed how vicious Parker has turned in the past couple of months, and quite frankly it turned me off. My eye is now set on Peter Brown and Gene.
[…] Campos observed the other day that he’d hardly received any campaign mailers so far this year. That’s largely been true for me as well – before this week, I’d gotten the Peter Brown pieces, an Anna Eastman mailer, and maybe one or two others that aren’t sticking in my mind.
