Poor Wendy Davis
« on: November 05, 2014, 07:14:33 PM »
Davis lost Texas by more than 20 points and a MILLION votes to Greg Abbott.  Abbot won women by nine points, based on exit polls, and annihilated Davis among white women.  Abbott also carried a very respectable chunk of the Hispanic vote. 

And Davis' State Senate seat has been won by a pro-life conservative woman.  OUCH

She has national prominence, she can at least make money with speeches and book sales.

At most she can become a leader in the party hierarchy, or try again to be elected to congress when the climate is better for her.

Don't count her or any like her out for just one defeat, her fame is founded on tenacity.
