Former Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison, a Texas Republican who retired this year, said Republicans must shift their focus away from issues like abortion, same-sex marriage, gun rights and immigration.

“The combination of our fiscal responsibility message and the social issue message did not bring together a majority” in the presidential election, she said. “It’s not so much coming to the middle.

Steve! Do you write for yourself, seeing as though there are NO comments.

Kind of ironic really that you ventured to the Rightscoop last night and wouldnt answer questions re your comments. Funny though- I thought you were a chick based on how you came across.

Keep up the good work!
