I'm scared of Wendy

Democrat Wendy Davis insisted Tuesday she’ll break her party’s two-decade Texas losing streak and win the governor’s race, saying turnout from long-disillusioned voters will be stronger than expected and enough to overcome her opponent’s sizeable leads in campaign cash and opinion polls.

“In November, we will win and the people know it,” Davis told about 100 cheering supporters at a Democratic campaign gathering in Austin.

A Democrat hasn’t captured statewide office in Texas since 1994 and poll after poll has shown Davis struggling to make up ground against heavily favored Republican Attorney General Greg Abbott. In comments to reporters a short time later, Davis said, “The polls are going to go back and forth and up and down, and I’ll leave it to the pundits to determine what that means to them.”

“I trust the voters of Texas to understand why this race is so important and I believe that they are showing up and I believe they’re going to vote,” Davis said. [...]

“Greg Abbott’s unmatched record of fighting for Texans and enforcing the law without fear or favor has forced Sen. Davis to construct a fantasy script that even her Hollywood supporters would throw in the trash,” Abbott spokeswoman Amelia Chasse said in a statement.
