No, it's going to be sad. A wonderful human being is going to be subject to every outrageous slander and dirty tactic a hyper-hypocritical, morally bankrupt, bottomless money machine can dream up. And then she is going to lose and they will claim a divine mandate to cut school spending, public health, and lavish funds on the good ol' boy network while further entrenching their one-party power. This is just the soft core version of what we will see:
**** them. You think she hasn't heard all this thousands of times over already? She's not worried about what they're going to say about her as it's all been said before. It's already come directly from our current governor's mouth. Major's right - she's probably not going to win, but she will energize what has been until now a quiet minority in this state.
It's Texas, there aren't any contested races outside of a few state legislative seat and the Pete Gallego's Congressional seat.
Fine with me. The transplant of educated people including pissed off women will only get riled up with this. This state has evolved. Look at our Mayor? Prepare for a fight.
Bahahahahahahahahahahaaa Hilarious Dubious, just hilarious. If only your knew the things Wendy Davis has done, if only you knew...
61% of Texas women support the bill Davis tried to block. http://s3.amazonaws.com/static.texastribune.org/media/documents/ut.tt-jun2013-crosstabs.pdf Page 416
Her campaign nickname will be "Squish" because her whole campaign will be based on tromping through fields of tiny, helpless fetuses ... providing new meaning for "Head Start (on Heart Stop)."
A tiny fetus in a field wouldn't last that long....... Good, I hope the Republicans make this entire race about the abortion issue. On a side note, I don't want a crippled lame governor.
I suppose you would not have voted for FDR (Franklin D. Roosevelt) had a very sympathetic press ever showed him in his wheelchair.
If FDR was running for governor of Texas, then no..... I don't want a crippled, broken down, lame Governor. I want a healthy, energetic Governor that the people of the state can be proud of.
So, you would vote Republican if this year's race boiled down to Rick Perry or FDR, based solely on athletic ability? Your new political motto: Brawn over brains! Based on your logic, the world's foremost astrophysicist, Stephen Hawking, should be replaced by, say, Johnny Football Manzel.
I'm looking forward to watching the GOP continue to pile on the mud onto Wendy Davis... between that and pushing hard for tightening the borders should do wonders for attracting more voters...
Is FDR running for Governor of Texas? Is Rick Perry running for re-election? Is Stephen Hawking running for Governor of Texas? Is Johnny Manziel running for Governor of Texas? Makes about as much sense as your "squishy" comment huh?
