While we need to remain vigilant... 8% is still a pretty big margin of lead, and this is just one month's poll. These polls can swing 2-3% from month to month. This won't worry me a lot unless the D's continue to cut the margin.
|

Or you got the people like me(if I answer the phone) tell the pollster exactly opposite of what I am gonna do. I would not be surprised at this being part of it. At any rate, Wendy Davis, is in no way shape or form good for anything in Texas.

Pretty nasty TV ad yesterday against Abbott from the Wendy cronies. Something about a Kirby vacuum salesman sexually assaulting a home owner and the couple sued Kirby saying they were responsible as they failed to do a background check on the salesman who was a registered sex offender. Said Abbot was the only one out of the 5 or 6 judges that sided with Kirby instead of the victims.

I wrote and called her office many times over many subjects. Never one response. When I called after having enough of that to ask why John Cornyn would answer me when I disagreed with him but Wendy was too busy to even send a form letter...I was answered basically with she disagreed with my philosophy and left hanging??? Because we disagree doesn't mean she shouldn't answer or represent me. She is a truly worthless, self seeking politician. I despise john Cornyn but at least he answers. I can't express the venom I have for her candidacy!

Church going, kind, ect. I really expect the dems to come out with some mean ads. Remember Ma Richards, in her speech, "Stick a fork in George Bush, he's done." That's not the only thing she got wrong. |

I'm pretty sure the public is tired of electing people who arent qualified for it. She will get votes. But killing babies is not popular here.

In regards to the original post...
I said we needed to not get comfortable MONTHS ago when she first announced. I was told on this forum not to worry. Yeah. That worked out real well. It's going to be a lot closer than we realize. |

IMO - The only votes Wendy will get are the same folks that vote Democrat regardless of who runs. That woman has told so many lies, I doubt she can keep them all straight. I'm looking forward to some rebuttal adds that shine a little light on her BS...

I find it to be interesting dichotomy that the Democrats, including Wendy Davis, will gladly let you kill
your unborn children, yet be the first ones to take firearms away from law abiding citizens. |

What Perry signed was 20 weeks, and I think most any woman would know by 5 months whether they are pregnant or not. Although, I suppose you could be opposed to the restrictions on the doctors as well. Probably still an arbitrary time limit. Kinda found it strange that before she decided to run for governor, Wendy Davis was anti-death penalty, but pro abortion. |

Wendy Davis isn't pro-abortion... there is a difference between that and pro-choice. I think if people can't provide proof of financial responsibility to have children, have a license and mandatory parental education (or at least passing an equivalency test) that abortion should be mandatory. We demand more for people to be able to drive than to have children. As I said before, an abortion is much cheaper than a live birth + a lifetime of welfare. It wouldn't take long to really cut down on social spending if we took some positive steps to curbing our overpopulation problem. It isn't like humans are an endangered species. We are approaching 7 billion humans on this planet... which is about twice what it can reasonably support. |

"Mandatory Abortion."
"Forced sterilization." What is wrong with you? That is some totalitarianism if I ever heard it. How about just ending all these stupid welfare programs so people either are forced to deal with consequences of their own actions or depend on charity? |

I think everyone should get prepared for Wendy to be our new governor.
It is very much in the realm of possibility. We've have an R in the spot for too long by Texas standards. Houston, SA, Austin and likely Dallas will go all out for Wendy. |

I appreciate your comments. As an aside, I truly hope that you change your mind about souls before you die...I'd rather see you in heaven. As a further aside, not that I think that we should kill animals for no reason, but they do not have souls because they're not people. As for being wanted and properly taken care of, I agree that those things are of paramount importance. Our little boy has no idea how good he has it. I take pride in being his father, teaching him, and paying for his worldly needs. It's my duty and privilege as his father. Unfortunately, many skumbags lack this inherent wiring that makes me feel that I'd die a million times over for him if necessary. But to kill a baby because he isn't loved or cared for...look at history. Many important figures had the worst lot in life possible at first, but overcame the odds and made tremendous impacts on our society. True, this isn't the norm, but it happens. With this said, how are we to say that this baby dies or another dies because mom is dumb, corrupt, and poor? Did we just kill a future president, general, scientist, philanthropist ect.? The fact is that we do not know, and only God is qualified to "sort us out." |
