For a while, Kay Bailey Hutchison flirted with the idea of challenging Texas Governor Rick Perry in a Republican Primary battle that had the potential to be nasty intra-party fight. Instead, the Republican Senator decided to run for re-election and is in great shape as the year begins. Hutchison leads Democrat Barbara Ann Radnofsky 64% to 25% in the latest Rasmussen Reports election poll. Hutchison is viewed favorably by 67% of Texas voters. Just 25% have a favorable opinion of Radnofsky. Crosstabs and other questions are available for Premium Members. Fifty-four percent (54%) of Texas voters say it is more important to finish the mission in Iraq than to get U.S. troops home as soon as possible.
