Houston Chronicle: Wendy Davis for Governor

[Antares]

Wendy Davis hasn't got a prayer.

To reiterate why the Houston Chronicle prefers Democrats.
After years of one party rule in the corporate oligarchy of Texas...

"That distinction is a dismal reminder that this big, booming state falls far short in too many categories.

We have the highest percentage of uninsured children in the nation,

the fourth-highest percentage of people living below the

poverty

level, the second-highest percentage of people going

hungry.

We are last in the percentage of residents with a

high school diploma.

We have the nation's

dirtiest air.

The list could go on." ~ Houston Chronicle

What we ought to be praying for is, the people of Texas will wake the fuck up... maybe it's the dirty air that's clogging their brains and keeping Texans from graduating from high school or maybe the hunger or...
.

Yes, that would be due to all the illegal aliens jumping the border.

What are you going to say on election night when she loses by double digits?

If Wendy Davis doesn't win, I'll say the people of Texas that didn't have their votes suppressed deserve their unregulated dirty air, chemical explosions...
.

LMAO, you need a frontal lobotomy.

She is a psycho loser bitch who might have eaten her children if it were legal.

 

[Picaro]

She can't get the hispanic vote in the numbers she needs to win. Hispanics, legal and illegal, frown on baby killing and homosexual marriage and adoption. She'll lose for the same reasons Ann Richards lost to Bush: stupidity and sociopathic cluelessness.

 

[LordBrownTrout]

I hope she aborts all of her children. We don't need anymore of this shit pool!

Well, she flushed two or three down the toilet from her sugar daddy.

 

[Dont Taz Me Bro]

If Wendy Davis doesn't win, I'll say the people of Texas that didn't have their votes suppressed deserve their unregulated dirty air, chemical explosions...

What do you mean if? It's simply when. There is no possibility of if.

 

[JoeB131]

she ran a very poor campaign, and the wheelchair ad was just stupid.

 

[JakeStarkey]

Houston Chronicle: Wendy Davis for Governor means absolutely nothing. Abbott will win by ten points, easily.

 

[Picaro]

This article sums it up:

Abbott, Patrick command big leads in KHOU – Houston Public Media Poll

Abbott Patrick command big leads in KHOU Houston Public Media Poll

Abbott's supported by 47 percent of likely voters surveyed for the poll, compared to Wendy Davis' 32 percent
...
In the lieutenant governor's race, Republican Dan Patrick also has a double-digit lead over his Democratic opponent, Leticia Van de Putte. Patrick's supported by 36 percent of surveyed voters compared to Van de Putte's 24 percent.

The Lt. Governor's race is the more important over the Governor's race; it's the more powerful office in most respects.

Another interesting race here is the Land Commissioner race.

Land commissioner race pits former El Paso Mayor John Cook against George P. Bush - El Paso Times

Land commissioner race pits former El Paso Mayor John Cook against George P. Bush

The race for a lesser-known state office this fall will turn out a historic winner, regardless of which candidate prevails.

Democrat John Cook and Republican George P. Bush are campaigning to be the next Texas land commissioner, whose General Land Office oversees state lands, mineral rights and coastlines, as well as a slew of other boards and commissions.

Early voting begins today.

Cook, the former El Paso mayor, would be the first El Pasoan in Texas' 168-year history to hold a statewide position. Bush would be the latest in the American political dynasty to hold elected office, following in the footsteps of his grandfather, President George H. W. Bush; uncle President George W. Bush; and father, former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush.

So one partisan hack paper/city Houston is for shilling for a another corrupted ugly liberal who's claim to fame is standing up for women to kill off their offspring like she got rid of hers. Whoa, what a shock eh?

Hey, quit importing poverty, hunger, and ignorance.

Hey, quit importing poverty, hunger, and ignorance.

Indeed. It's hilarious how cognitively dissonant those people are who decry Texas' poverty rates and educational failings out of one side of their mouths while ignoring the role criminal illegal aliens play in their little 'Fun With Statistics' games re poverty rates, dropout rates, and overloaded public health systems and all the rest. Then they cry 'racism' and 'bigotry' when efforts are made to curb the very reasons those rates are so high.

Was the same or worse under famous Democrat non-person Lyndon Baines Johnson, the Dem Dems deny ever existed.

Most Texas liberals opposed illegal immigration, as did the hispanic demographic. Barbara Jordan opposed it as well, and got tossed under the bus by the Black Caucus for it, so no, not all Texas Democrats supported it; they were populists, mainly, as was Cesar Chavez, another opponent of illegal immigration. The Democratic Party itself changed in the 1980's, and deliberately purged their populist wings, mainly through the implementation of the 'Super Delegate Rule', which is why they now depend almost entirely on identity politics and racism for their current base. Candidates like Davis can't win in states where hispanics play a major role in elections, despite the delusions the brie and chardonnay Democrats that run the DNC have that they're going to lock up the hispanic vote.

 

[JakeStarkey]

Antares does not hate women any more than hating anyone else in general.

 

[LordBrownTrout]

BFD. She is down 12 pts with less than a month to go......She has ZERO chance of winning.

uh-oh Republicans - another day, another newspaper endorsement, the Texas ducks are starting to line up for Wendy.

This week, Democratic Party internal polling has Wendy moving up to 12-11-10-9-8-7- within 6 points of the hypocrite - looks like Wendy's ads and superior ground game are working.

​

OTOH, a vote for Abbott is just another way Texans can say, we hate our children and-----and our neighbor's children too.


Austin American Statesman Endorsement: ‘Wendy Davis is the Right Choice’
October 18, 2014

<snip>

Davis lists public school education as a priority. She has called for funding full-day pre-kindergarten programs – a proposal that she says would cost about $730 million but could be partially offset by closing corporate tax loopholes. She wants the Legislature to raise teacher pay. She has fought to reduce standardized testing.

Also at the top of Davis’ to-do list: expand Medicaid under the Affordable Care Act.
Expansion would give hundreds of thousands of Texans health insurance and bring back to the state tax dollars that are being used elsewhere. To reject expanding Medicaid is to posture politically, Davis correctly says, and it comes at great cost to the state and its less-fortunate citizens.

The abortion ho will be lucky to win austin.

 

[BlindBoo]

Good for the Chronicle.

 

[Manonthestreet]

Houston is lib central....currently trying to jail preachers for opposing them

 

[OKTexas]

I hope she aborts all of her children. We don't need anymore of this shit pool!

She didn't abort them, she abandoned them to the man she divorced the day after he paid for her Harvard Law degree. She's nothing but white trash.

Wendy Davis received the endorsement of the Houston Chronicle
Egberto Willies
Oct 18, 2014

The Houston Chronicle has endorsed Wendy Davis for Governor of Texas. This was a surprise that should not have been surprising. After-all, the entire Democratic ticket is competent and strong. The entire Republican lineup reeks of cronyism and an offensive display of entitlement.

The subtitle in the Houston Chronicle's endorsement says it all, "Texas needs a leader who's willing to tackle tough issues too long ignored." If that isn't a slap on the deficiency in leadership in Austin, what is? They continue near the end with this reality.

That distinction is a dismal reminder that this big, booming state falls far short in too many categories. We have the highest percentage of uninsured children in the nation, the fourth-highest percentage of people living below the poverty level, the second-highest percentage of people going hungry. We are last in the percentage of residents with a high school diploma. We have the nation's dirtiest air. The list could go on.

The list could go on...​

A liberal paper endorsing a liberal and you're surprised?

What you are is an idiot that would vote for a proven liar like Davis, but then again you voted for the lying POS Obama.
