On November 5th, Wendy Davis' Twitter account finally went silent.
And all around the webbernet, the assessments are in i.e. 2014 midterms, and,
according to The Washington
Post, Bruce Braley - not Wendy Davis - was the worst candidate of this
election season.
Always the bridesmaid,
Wendy did get some dishonorable mentions which highlight why she and her
campaign deserved to be nominated as the worst of the worst.Wendy Davis was, by any measure, a massive disappointment -- not even breaking 40 percent of the vote against state Attorney General Greg Abbott (R) in the Texas gubernatorial race.
And new emails have surfaced to show just how bad a train wreck Team Wendy actually was. The communication is from campaign consultants and offers insight as to why Texans had to suffer through such classics as "I Stand with Wendy" against a wheelchair-bound opponent. According to The Daily Caller,
“The campaign is in disarray and is in danger of being embarrassed,” wrote Peter Cari and Maura Dougherty, two consultants who run the firm Prism Communications hired by the Davis campaign, in a Jan. 6 memo to then-campaign manager Karin Johanson.
The consultants wrote that the campaign attempted to portray Davis as a “national Democrat” in an effort to appeal “to liberal donors in the mistaken belief that there is a hidden liberal base in Texas that will turn out to vote if they have a liberal candidate to support.”
“It’s possible to lose and still look good,” the consultant told the Tribune. “Our worry in January was it was setting Wendy up for embarrassment throughout the course of the campaign. I think the way the campaign played out was far, far worse than it should have been.”
