Larry Sabato, a professor of politics at the University of Virginia, said Hudson’s ambition and devotion to Republican politics is well-known around the state—so much so that he’s been repeatedly mentioned as a potential GOP candidate for Congress.
“He’s a conservative Republican and there’s nothing unusual about his (health care) decision—it’s completely predictable,” said Sabato.
“His name was bandied about repeatedly for Congress, for both the House and Senate back in the 80s and 90s,” Sabato said. “I always remember him being identified with conservatives—never in line with the John Warner, moderate [GOP] faction.”
In recent months, some supporters of the health care reform law have called attention to a financial link Hudson maintains to the conservative movement. He is an investor in Campaign Solutions, a Republican consulting firm that has provided campaign and fundraising advice to numerous GOP candidates opposed to health care reform.
One of them was Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli, who brought the health care suit ruled on Monday. Cuccinelli canceled his contract with the firm when Hudson’s tie to the firm was disclosed by the Huffington Post.
