"Last week Hutchison, who previously said she would resign her senate seat to run for governor, announced she will remain in the Senate as she seeks the gubernatorial nomination."

Why is she blocking a State Senate Seat until she is sure of a Governorship? She's just another selfish lifetime politician....

Just what he needs, an endorsement from a federal criminal. Please Cheney stop talking, because no one is listening.

I am a loyal, staunch, through and through Democrat in Texas. I believe 100% in our President Obama. I have met the Senator on several occasions. She is a warm, and very nice person. In Texas, the governorship is weak. The Lt. Governor has all the power in the state house. Still, it is our governorship. I hate everything that Cheney stands for. In Texas we have a saying about peopel we don't like. "If you were on the side of the road and on fire, I wouldn't piss on you to put the fire out". Well I would do that for Cheney. But only after I chugged down a bottle of 180 proof Vodka. On that endorsement, she lost my support.

why has no one arrested this man?

Is our justice department still hobbled from his reign?

Lets get the questions answered while this man is still alive.

Whisper it on the whirlwind

Whisper it on the Whirlwind

Wow. There's a battle of not-helpful endorsements. And from such qualified sources! Palin, whose idea of foreign policy is equivalent to a four year olds, and Cheney, recognized as the architect of the disaster that was the Bush administration. Yeah, lets get the endorsement of those two failures!

I don't give a hoot for Cheney or his support. But after reading the kind of things Gov. Perry has been saying, even the more conservative Mrs. Hutchison will be a far better Gov. for the great state of TX. Besides, she has the courage to call for term limits for the members of Congress via a constitutional amendment.

Anyone Cheney endorses should become an anti-candidate, period.

Now that Cheney has made his choice clear, inquiring minds now want to know who is Dracula coming out for? Of course, next to the real Prince of Darkness, Dracula would probably be seen as the liberal endorsement.

Palin better be careful; unless she tows the GOP line with what Cheney wants, she might be waterboarded or worse yet, be employed by the Haliburton Corp.

Dick Cheney is a great American.
He is a better person than Communist News Network wants you to know.

I wish that Cheney would have stayed out of this. His endorsement is lethal. I can't understand why the man thinks so highly of himself - why can't he quietly go into retirement like his bud, W?

I've seen more of Mr. Cheney since Obama has been in office than I ever did when Bush was president.

This man just can't stand to give up any spotlight now that the attention is NOT on his administration. i'm sure he enjoyed having so many voters take everything he said at face value and believe it.

This man is so corrupt he should be ashamed to show his face to the public. He and the Bush administration are the ones responsible for putting us far far into debt – this recession is not Obama's fault, he inherited it from these shysters.

Who the cares what he thinks? I know I don't.

Does Dick live in Texas?

Who cares.......

So just like that Rick Perry wins. Sweet, saves the people of Texas a lot of money on an election.

Does she really want a Cheney endorsement? If you are thinking long term about things, how do Texans feel about Cheney? I know that it would leave me with some concerns. Then again, she did say that she would resign her Senate seat and then didn't do that. There is some concern there.

Cheney is .... well, his first name says it all.

Well, that's going to make things interesting in Texas for the RNC

Is this good for her? I would prefer he supports the other candidate.

Does anybody who wants to get elected actually solicit an endorsement from this man?

One word to describe this creature – pariah.

Wow Kay I was going to vote for you but with an endorsement from Mr. Torture" I am not sure now.

Cheney in the primaries, Cheney denial in the general election...
I gotta believe, that even in Red State Texas, Cheney isn't a plus in the general population.

Well, there is a death sentence to Hutchison.. Anybody he backs, I would be very wary of..

Hutchinson, this sure is the kiss of death for you, say goodby to your governership, although I don't know that Sarah's support is much better.

Here he is again ladies and gentlemen...The crap salesman
with a mouth full of samples !!!

I like Mrs Hutchison....and would vote for her over the current governor....Cheney got this one right....

Is a public endorsement of Hutchison a cynical ploy to help Perry? On the other hand it can't hurt too much in Texas to have a former Vice President, who previously lived in Texas, supporting you. Apparently Perry wants to be governor forever.

Oh god .. she got the kiss of death! ..... There goes the election

Given that Dick Chaney's endorsement is the kiss of death outside the Republican Party, you have to wonder who he's really working for.
He probably doesn't have much to lose from the wing nuts anyway, who now claim to hate him and Bush for not being extreme enough.

If he really cares about her campaign, he should stay out of it. He'll only give fire power to the other side.

good. now I wish repug Hutchinson would resign so a democrat can pick up that senate seat; because either she or Gov. Perry is gonna be Scozzafava'd by the tea baggers, Pain-Lin, Glen Beck, Rush LimpFROG and their hateful & bigoted bunch!....repugs should await another NY-23 district disaster!!!

Where's George? You'd think the former governer of Texas AND president of the US would show support for madame Kay. As usual, Dick is toe stepping, again.

Cheney endorses Hutchinson?

Ok, so she's after the "Torture is Fun" vote.

Rick Perry and Sarah Palin align themselves together because they both talk about suceeding from the other states while our men and women are at war from the States of Texas and Alaska. That's not the leadership anyone needs or deserve.

well, at least he's not endorsing Perry.

No one cares. Is she a waterboarder also? Is she in to attacking countries that did not attack us?

She promise more work for hal-burton?

Cheney opening his gob in the Texas governor's race heaps more disdain upon my state. Politically, it probably makes sense, because his endorsement could put Hutchison over the top by securing the most uber-whacko votes in the primary, and since Democrats can't get their act together to find another Ann Richards, the primary is the only bit that will matter.

Hutchison will be horrible, but who could be worse than Bush and Perry have been? Until Texans get a candidate they can get enthusiastic about, the rest of the world will rightly look at this state as a hotbed of regressive and feudalistic politics, fueled by dirty oil money.

Given the former vice presidents past judgement, I would be hesitent to follow his recommendation.

This is the equivilant of saying Hutchinson wants to win. Of course he endorsed her. This isn't news and who cares.

Hey Dick, How does it feel to be the most hated man in America? Hope your Halliburton kickbacks are keeping you happy. Have a nice day!

If Hutchison has a brain she'll tell Cheney to go home and leave her alone. Remember that saying about Nixon?? went something like this....."Dick Nixon before he Dicks you.....same could be said for Cheney don't you think???

That man is pure evil, nothing is right about cheney, i would throw his money right back in his face.

So Perry is endorsed by Palin, and Hutchinson is endorsed by Cheney. And one flew over the cuckoo's nest.

they deserve each other. neither one can tell the truth!!!

Talk about the kiss of death. I can only hope the great people of TX. will reject the continued GOP's ways and come into the 21st century.

They used to like Democrats in TX so why not go Democrat in 2010 and 2012.

Looks like Darth has found a new apprentice. She even lies like him!

Last week Hutchison, who previously said she would resign her senate seat to run for governor, announced she will remain in the Senate as she seeks the gubernatorial nomination.

Hutchison has shown her true colors by not leaving her Senate seat, while running for Governor. Can anyone say she is afraid? Hillary had no problem leaving to run for President. I am embarrased to be a Texan!

I can remember when whe had a President and VP who loved and protected this country. Now we are left with two cowards who hate everything about america. They only made it as politicians which means you have to be able to lie and cheat, so they think that makes the goverment work.

If I were running for any office, an endorsement from Dick Cheney is not exactly the kind of endorsement I'd want. I wouldn't vote for anyone he endorses. She should say "thanks but no thanks."

That's the greatest kiss of death!

Dick Cheney aka. "Lord Darkseid" aka. "Clockwork" Here To Save The Day For The GOP (Grumpy Old Politicians)...Yea!

Well, that wraps up any hope of me voting for her for anything, ever again. I was close to considering a Republican for a once, but this confirms the type of ilk she hangs out with. Never getting my vote.

In related news, Satan has also thrown his support towards Hutchison. Both are well liked amongst conservative voters and the decendents of confederate soldiers not tried for treason.

Perry-Palin vs. Hutchinson-Cheney in a battle we wish everyone could lose!!

Let me see now, Rick Perry, the current Governor of Texas, who actively and with glee, recently assisted in the execution and cover-up of an innocent man and Cheney giving his endorsement to Bible-thumping Hutchison; what a choice for the great people of Texas!

Maybe she shouldn't pose for photos that she doesn't want seen. and if President Obama's daughters did something wrong like ahhh...let see get impregnated the press would be all over it. You are a very devisive woman Sarah. You hold views that the majority of this country don't have. I celebrate your right to have those opinions but not everyone is going to love you. Buck up.

If Cheney is endorsing her....she's a loser.

I thought that vampires could not come out during the day.

In related news...Hutchinson just lost the election.

Oh my....the Cheney Curse!!

Death nell for her....lol. Why don't these people go away quietly? He had his moment in the sun. Geez.

Must be Hutchison has promised him some more oil money.

I love these KISS OF DEATH endorsements from pariahs like Palin and Cheney... don't these idiots realize how much they are hated?

Wow Kay,you just got the kiss of doom from a war criminal,but then again Texas is the nations war machine capital.

Not that I'd vote for KBH anyway, but having Dick Cheney sign on to your political career is not good news. This coward chickenhawk draft dodger is bad news for any campaign.

Boy he just gave the KISS OF DEATH to this woman..........

I wouldn't want anything from DARK VADER CHENEY . other than a sign saying good by america.. or put him in jail for war crimes along with the idiots that still follow him and Palin .. bottom of the pond

These Republicans are a pack of rats, don't you know. The more you read about them the slimier they get. I can no longer stomach speaking with someone who still identifies him/herself with the Republican party. They are the most hateful, fear mongering creeps in this country. Oh my, I am beginning to sound like one. I better be quiet.

Well, Kay. It was a nice try at getting elected. How much did your opponent pay Dick to back you?

Dont take the endorsement Kay...Its a set up. This man is E-V-I-L you will loose if he is on your side.

I WAS going to vote for her until I read this.

PROSECUTE CHENEY FOR WAR CRIMES!

Well, now people know who NOT to vote for

Oh wow, one Governor candidate in endorsed by Darth (Dick Cheney) Vador, and the other is endorsed by the EGOMANIC (Sarah Palin)....

Republicans must be goin crazy by their party being highjacked by the most DISPICABLE people alive...

Oh and I forgot, Rush Limbaugh says Sarah Palins book is the most "Substanctive Policy Book" ever....

Some where in America, moderate Republicans must be extremely embarrased at whats going on right now....!

And I thought Hutchison was one of the Repubs that had at least some sense..........Bringing in Cheney is not a smart move, but in Texas who knows

I would have thought that Darth Chaney would have been impressed by Governor Perry's threats to take the Texas Rangers and the Texas National Guard and go in and kick some Mexican drug dealer butt. Must not be any money in that strategy for the ex Vice President and draft dodger in charge!

thats the kiss of death

They love Cheney in Texas. Hitler too!

Two negatives don't make a positive. Sorry Dick!

Well there goes her chance of being elected.

And the battle begins – PALIN against the rest of the REPUBLI-CAN'Ts

This is getting GOOD!! The party is soooo SPLIT, the numbers ARE NOT going to add up!!

YES WE CAN!!

One would think that Cheneybot turning his lifeless gaze upon a candidate would ruin them like a political scarlet letter, but this is TX... they apparently have a 9 in 10 rate of trisomy there...and the other 1 in 10 are too stupid to leave. It's something in the water I think.

What Hutchison resign and give up her healt-care? I don't think she's that foolish.

While I don't particularly like (p)Rick Perry, I certainly wouldn't vote for the uber liberal in Republican's clothing Kay.
