Re: Kay Bailey Hutchison

Fair enough if you don't like him for his other stances. Thanks for the clarification; I was REALLY confused, and wondered if you had other information that wasn't publically known.

I'd be interested to see documentation on this, as I have not been able to find ANY information on his gun control stance.
Also, I don't see the Brady Campaign or their ilk supporting him.

He also voted in favor of castle doctrine in 2007.

According to NRA-PVF and project vote smart:

2006 Based on lifetime voting records on gun issues and the results of a questionnaire sent to all state legislative candidates in 2006, the National Rifle Association Political Victory Fund assigned Representative Noriega a grade of A (with grades ranging from a high of A+ to a low of F).

2004 Based on lifetime voting records on gun issues and the results of a questionnaire sent to all state legislative candidates in 2004, the National Rifle Association Political Victory Fund assigned Representative Noriega a grade of A (with grades ranging from a high of A+ to a low of F).

2002 Based on lifetime voting records on gun issues and the results of a questionnaire sent to all state legislative candidates in 2002, the National Rifle Association Political Victory Fund assigned Representative Noriega a grade of A (with grades ranging from a high of A+ to a low of F).

2000 Based on lifetime voting records on gun issues and the results of a questionnaire sent to all state legislative candidates in 2000, the National Rifle Association Political Victory Fund assigned Representative Noriega a grade of B (with grades ranging from a high of A+ to a low of F).

1998 Based on a questionnaire and the votes that National Rifle Association Political Victory Fund considered to be the most important in 1998, they have assigned Representative Noriega a grade of B (with grades ranging from a high of A+ to a low of F-).
I also know that the NRA endorsed him for his last race in 2006, but I'm not sure about the previous races.
So please explain to me why you say he hates guns, I need to understand.

Amen on that.

I like and respect Rick Perry too, but this year I've learned a lot of what he is trying to do with toll roads in Texas and i am 100% against those policies and the directives given to TXDOT. Because of these policies, i find myself voting for a democrat for the first time in my 46 years of life (local level election and maybe state level too). Given a pro-gun choice in Kay Bailey, i could be swayed her way for governor.

Can you expand on thsi a bit more?

Re: Kay Bailey Hutchison

I like Perry; this state is far more better run than any other I've lived in, and I'd vote for him over her.

Granted, the Gov. here doesn't have a ton of power, but I'm not going to change anything I'm generally happy with.
