Will Hutchison resign her Senate seat?

Will Hutchison resign her Senate seat to run for governor? Should she?

If she doesn't, will this open up a line of attack for Perry?

I'll have thoughts on this later, but first I wanted to open it up for discussion in the comments.

A few relevant facts to keep in mind:

1. January, February and March are often the busiest months in the Senate's legislative calendar (or so it appeared to me on browsing the Senate legislative calendar for the last few years).
2. Primary is March 7, 2006.
3. If Hutchison resigns, Perry can appoint her replacement, which would then probably trigger a special election
