She's trying to use national campaign tactics (smear) in a state campaign.

She might want to study her history before continuing down that path.

Kay "Bailout" Hutchinson left politics after a bad, really bad try for Governorship.
The Dem hopeful in the last Governor election spent his time distancing himself from the Dem party saying he wasn't like the national Dems..he wasn't "like them".

We threw both Republicans and Democrats out of running.

She's just not mentioning it because she's campaigning in Texas, a majority conservative state.

Context people..context.

If she were running in CA she'd have a completely different campaign.
But this is Texas, not California and the "liberal left" are not that far left.
Why doesn't Greg Abbott's official website mention abortion? What is he hidding from?

Issues - Greg Abbott

He doesn't need to. He already has a section on Defend Traditional Values: I Believe in Defending Traditional Values.

"Championing the conservative values and religious liberties that define Texans, Greg Abbott fights for the principles of faith, family and freedom to make Texas a better place to live and raise a family."

It's hard to raise a family when you are aborting them.

If you have the compacity to make that assessment for Abbott, then why do you have some much trouble making the same about what Davis believes?

Because the "abortion" issue is at the national level.

Most Texans are concerned about economics, not "social justice".

I have not seen a focus on economic problems coming from the GOP, just character assassinations.

So explain to me again why it matters that Davis did not mention abortion on her website and draws condemnation for not doing so?

Have you noticed the unemployment rate in Texas? Have you noticed that all state offices are held by Republicans and they hold comfortable majorities in both houses? Have you notice about 40% of the state is minorities?

Texans care about the economy and jobs.

Not pro or con - but abortion is really a rough and stupid road to follow. It did not ensure the rights of woman. It removed the rights of woman to be woman.
So women are FORCED to have abortions?

The only women having abortions are those that have complete households, and are healthy and educated?

Maybe you forgot the
