Big announcement coming from Hutchison

[ccharles000]

U.S. Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison has called a press conference for 10 a.m. Wednesday in San Antonio and is expected to announce whether she will stay in the Senate for the rest of her term.

Sen. John Cornyn, her fellow Texas Republican, and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell will join her for the announcement. Cornyn confirmed on Twitter that he would be on hand but did not elaborate.

Hutchison’s aides could not be reached late Tuesday.

Hutchison said last fall that she would resign her Senate seat after the March primary for governor, which she lost handily to Gov. Rick Perry. But she has been very quiet about those plans since her loss, and several sources close to her have said in recent weeks that she was unsure about what the next step should be.

4. No offense, but . . . This is a little late

announcing that she is going to make a big statement that she already made ... not that it was that big. There was never much danger that she would do what she said she would.

5. Did anyone think she would actually resign the Senate if she lost?

Lying Republican is a redundancy
