Don’t fear a fight with KBH

I want to take a minute to recommend Karl-Thomas’ analysis of the Governor’s race, and why Democrats seem to be working towards a self-fulfilling prophecy of Kay Bailey Hutchison’s inevitability and unbeatableness. I’ve talked about some of this stuff before, but his point about how Rick Perry’s attacks on KBH from the right can give a Democratic nominee the opportunity to box her in early on is a good one; what’s more, by having a good Democrat in the race early on, it could negatively affect her presumed strategy to lure non-traditional Republican voters into that primary to counteract Perry’s base. Good stuff, and I’m glad to see more attention focused on this. I just hope the message gets received by those who can do something about it.
