Wendy Davis goes negative with despicable ad on opponent’s disability

Gubernatorial candidate Wendy Davis seems to have realized that her pro-abortion platform has failed to capture the attention of Texans and she’s stooped to a new low in her desperation to win. She has spent much of her time rushing ridiculous attacks at her opponent, Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott. Because Abbott has a squeaky clean record (unlike Davis), Wendy has stooped to attacking him for being disabled. Watch her new ad here:

Supporters of Davis, who is down in the polls by high-single to low-double digits, have argued that this is her ‘Hail Wendy’ pass in a last-ditch effort to secure votes. But politicians on both sides of party lines are questioning her level of desperation in the face of this horrendous personal attack.

Dear Reader,

Have you ever wanted to share the miracle of human development with little ones? Live Action is proud to present the "Baby Olivia" board book, which presents the content of Live Action's "Baby Olivia" fetal development video in a fun, new format. It's perfect for helping little minds understand the complex and beautiful process of human development in the womb.

Receive our brand new Baby Olivia board book when you give a one-time gift of $30 or more (or begin a new monthly gift of $15 or more) to fuel Live Action’s life-saving content.

Anyone who watched Davis filibuster a bill last summer that protects pain-capable, late-term unborn children from excruciating abortions can easily explain this low-blow from the Davis campaign; they don’t expect a woman who vehemently opposes innocent life to have any scruples about attacking the disabled (or anyone else, for that matter).
