If Wendy Davis Is In, It's Because She Can Win

If Wendy Davis runs for Governor of Texas she will occupy the political middle-ground that Republicans continue to cede. That is a fact that was evident in the hour-long conversation she had at the Texas Tribune Festival this past weekend, as well as a new poll by Public Policy Polling.

She remained committed to her Oct. 3rd date on the question of her future plans, so her interviewer Evan Smith asked what she considered as she made her final decision. She said she wanted to make sure she wasn't doing something "fool-hardy" and recalled her last two hard fought elections in reliably red territory. "I knew when I entered that race that it was hard but it wasn't impossible," she said.

"I knew when I asked people to support me and to help me through their time, energy, and financial resources, I knew i was asking them to partner with me to do something that I believe we could make happen. And i have gone through that same analysis in making the decision that I will be announcing on Thursday."

Bottom line: If Wendy Davis enters the race for Governor, it's because she thinks she can win.

Good luck, Texas!
