If for no other reason . . .


I wouldn't vote for Wendy Davis if for no other reason than that her donor list includes:

  • Barbra Streisand
  • Marlo Thomas
  • Matt Damon
  • Holland Taylor (who wrote and starred in a show about Ann Richards)
  • Willie Nelson
  • Steve & Amber Mostyn (ambulance chasing millionaire lawyers who have given her cash and air fares worth $738,000 -- no one spends that kind of money unless they're getting something in return)
  • Service Employees International Union ($250,000 -- this is the union that was forcibly deducting union dues from the Medicaid benefits of disabled adults who were being cared for at home)
  • Planned Parenthood (supported with your tax dollars, more than $100,000 of which was donated to Wendy Davis. How is it that a Conservative non-profit can't mention politics, but Planned Parenthood can?)
I wrote the other day about Preston Van Leeuwen from California who was offended that Rick Perry was recruiting business in California. Well, Preston, I don't much care for all your Hollywood types trying to influence our governor's race -- for all the good it will do them. Despite all her money, at this point, Wendy's chances aren't looking too good.
