Wherever he turns, he prospers."
Proverbs 17:8
Ouch:
Understand something: These charges are 100% accurate. The original source material is here and here. Wendy Davis ABSOLUTELY lived large off of her campaign contributors.
[Note to the Club for Growth: Since you brought it up, don't forget Wendy Davis' career as a conflict-of-interest infested toll road lawyer.]
That being said, this story isn't about Wendy Davis personally. At least, not really (beyond the fact that Wendy Davis is personally running for another office this cycle). This is about bidness-as-usual in Texas state government.
Cuz' Wendy Davis ain't the only one doing this.
[Note to opposition researchers: When running against a current or former Texas legislator, ALWAYS check the "expenditure" sections of their old campaign finance reports. Especially in cycles where they don't have credible opposition. Never know what you'll find.]
Also, you'd think that after Rick Perry and Royce West, those who've spent a career working in Texas State government would think twice about running for federal office.
Oh well.
Bottom Line: Wendy Davis certainly didn't invent the game. But she's been a player. Whatever the impact in this particular congressional race, this is a teachable moment for the whole operation.
