Hutchison Staying In DC To Fight Health Care Bill



A Senate committee approval of a remake of the country's health care system, has one Texas senator vowing to stay in DC and fight it.
Texas Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison tells KRLD she is discouraged by today's bill passage and is waiting on the final product to see the cost.  The Senator says "the government take over of our health care system is so wrong for our country and for Texas".
The senator had said she would resign the senate in October or November to run Texas governor but today vowed to stay and fight against the Presidents health care proposal.
She says she would have been home by now if she had a choice but now "doesn't feel like she has a choice".
