"Wendy Davis, the Texas state senator whose filibuster for abortion rights made her a Democratic superstar and launched her campaign for governor, has admitted to the Dallas Morning News that she lied about key events in her life, including her first divorce. Davis may even have lied under oath, testifying in a federal lawsuit over redistricting that “I got divorced by the time I was 19 years old,” when in fact she was divorced at age 21.
Other missing details have included: her second husband paid her way through law school and she divorced him the day after the last payment was made; her ex-husband accused her in initial court filings of adultery, and was awarded custody of their two daughters; and she first ran for city council in Fort Worth as a Republican.
“My language should be tighter,” she said, admitting her campaign biography has been less than truthful."

thats why i tell you to stop putting politicians on pedestals. you always do that with republicans, like they are the second coming. davis is like every other politician, which is why i dont donate to any of them.
now take my advice about not donating and use it with your republican party.
I'm not a Wendy Davis supporter, but it should be pointed out that city council elections in most Texas cities, including Fort Worth (and possibly all, I'm not sure) are non-partisan.

I've stated my opinion any number of times that both parties pretty much suck. But I see far more instances of the right claiming some inherent moral superiority than I do the left and that's just pure, unadulterated hogwash.
