no idea, but she is getting crushed by the media in Austin, the moderators of the debates were clearly partisan for her and even they needed their jaws lifted off the ground.

I know a loser when I see one...she's toast.

I think she's the left's Sarah Palin.

I'm really going to miss her when the election is over. She's like a better looking and slightly more intelligent Debbie Schultz. She has become a looney tunes caricature of herself. She's only making her filibuster all the more irrelevant now and the pro-life crowd should be happy with that.

The reason I ask......I am not sure if the Dem base will pull the lever for her via a straight party line vote, or will they just not vote for her at all?

if you were a democrat how encouraged would you be to get up in the morning and go vote for her when you know she's going to get trounced?

I've never voted in my life but I don't know if it is her or the fact that I fled libtopia to come to texas, but I'm registered and ready to pull the lever republican across the board...I don't want Leticia either. Gays and people wanting their frick trash taken care of can suck it.

I know a girl (I use this term instead of woman for this particular "grown" female) that "loves and respects" Wendy Davis.

no doubt the morons with 50 bumper stickers and an inflated ego (they know everything) will vote for her...they're hardcore crazies.

true, but conservative governors, senators, etc...safety (these aren't the liberals who will kill you)

so far it is just annoying plastic baggie policies and some bullshite about not building a new gun range...it could've been dallas just as easily, but this is where we moved

also, I find it to be much more evenly distributed then the full on hipster paradise it is made out to be

Unfair comparison. Palin had some actual accomplishments during her career. She also didn't launch herself into the national spotlight with a publicity stunt--she was drafted to be McCain's running mate. She was a solid prospect who got rushed to the majors.

And on a personal level, she's still married to her first husband and she carried a difficult pregnancy to term. Stark contrast to Wendy Davis on character.

To be fair marrying a hispanic is seen as WAY different than marrying a black to most people.

There is no denying that Sarah Palin is a superior and just plain better human being that has accomplished a lot more compared to Wendy Davis. When I made the Palin comparison, I was comparing their political malpractice and gaffes they have both made.

You follow Democratic Politics much? Yes, this is overly draumatic, but just watch adds on TV, as they are always appealing to the lowest common denominator..

Love Twitchy's latest on her...

Keep digging, Wendy! Tapped-out Team Davis reduced to playing the dildo card

That's right, Media. Wendy Davis's closing argument is dildos and an interracial marriage ban that doesn't exist. Think about that.

Dildos, cripple-shaming, and killin' viable infants: @WendyDavisTexas is in touch with Texas values.

— Neal Dewing (@Neal_Dewing) October 20, 2014

Looks like Wendy Davis is determined to go out with a bang:

Welcome to the final two weeks #TXGOV pic.twitter.com/PPjt0sWcWH

— Aaron Blake (@AaronBlakeWP) October 20, 2014

Davis’ comms director is endorsing it:

Texas Observer: Greg Abbott: Dildos? Against ‘em. Interracial Marriage? No Comment. LINK

— Zac Petkanas (@Zac_Petkanas) October 20, 2014

As is her delightful press secretary, who was happy to send out the release:

ACTUAL Hdl: @GregAbbott_TX: Dildos? Against ‘em. Interracial Marriage? No Comment." LINK … #txlege

— Rebecca Acuna (@racunatx) October 20, 2014

Another home run for Team Wendy!

@JohnEkdahl So, the Davis campaign is taking a stance on Dildos by releasing this?

— Jim Swift (@JSwiftTWS) October 20, 2014

Guess so. Wendy Davis is all about the things that matter.

@RBPundit @SohlerSarah Constitution, taxes, border security? Meh. I want to know where my elected official stands on dildos. Non starter!

That time when the word "dildos" was used in a press release by someone running for the Governor of Texas. LINK …

Dildos, Texas. @WendyDavisTexas wants to put dildos on the ballot.

"We're getting our asses kicked. How do we make this race competitive in the final two weeks? OOOOOOOH Dildos!" – Wendy Davis's Team.

Suggestion for Team Wendy’s next social media scare-release:

FT @WendyDavisTexas Why won't wheelchair KKK Grand Kleagle Greg Abbott stop beating interracial couples to death with his racist dildo?
