Hey, did we mention that Greg Abbott is a cripple? Because we were afraid we were being a little too subtle in our last ad

Even if what Davis says in that instance was even partially true, we don’t want an abortion advocating liberal democrat as our governor , We want this woman to get lost.

The Dems are spending a lot of money to turn the state blue and they are playing dirty. They want the number of illegal immigrants maxed out in the state so they can overtake it by copulation and population. I could go into all of the methods they are using but it would take pages and I don’t feel like listing what most o you already know anyway...: )

That is a great ad by Abbott. He doesn’t slam her; he just tells the truth about her.

I can’t think of many politicians that have won office using nasty political ads but I can think of many that lost the race because of them.

Trial lawyers are the top donors in Texas politics and their party of choice is the Rat party.

Follow the money.

Did he file for disability? It looks like he is still working. If he filed suit for injury it seems that is a different story.

Agreed. I have no facts to evaluate Davis's campaign ad, to determine what happened in each situation mentioned in the ad, or to evaluate what Abbott may have written or said in those situations.

I hit a baby.

I hit a bay.

I confess.

I HIT A BABY.

I tossed a palm-sized stuffed ball to my wife when she was holding my first-born and it skimmed the top of his head. I'm unfit for public office.

> Hilarious! I love John Candy.

He was one of my favorite comedy actors of all time. It was a sad day when he passed awhile back. There will never be another John Candy...

I saw the ad on “The Five” on FOX tonight. Despicable.

Wendy just needs to relocate to California and she’ll be in the Senate as soon as DiFi or Boxer retire/croak.

At least Sandy Fluke was smart enough to relocate from Pennsylvania to Cali to run for office.

If what I am reading about her ad is correct, she is saying that Abbott supported demolition of a law that he benefited from.

If what I have read is correct, Abbott did indeed support tort reform in Texas. ie...lawsuits against doctors, hospitals, etc. This law did not include lawsuits filed on an individual(s), which is what Abbott did. There is no cap on those lawsuits. If my tree falls on someone they can still sue the pants off of me and my insurance premiums better be paid.

I’m sure if my understanding is incorrect someone with a better understanding of the law will let me know. :)

Of the many things that tick me off about Davis...her ads are half truths and a lot of people (some that I know) take them at face value. I can do a fact check, as best I can, on Abbott’s negative ads about Davis and they seem to be true. Sadly, his ads don’t seem to be as “personal” as hers. Rape victims, cancer patients and testing children don’t have the same impact as the fact that she is crooked as a dog’s hind leg.

Abbott ain’t perfect...but he is miles above her.
