Thanks! I almost forgot and I don't do TV/cable so this is exactly what I need. I've been talking Davis up with anybody that I happen to strike up a conversation with here in Amarillo and am really surprised at the responses. No surprise the women I've spoken with show support but I've talked to some older white guys that were at least willing to listen to her. I think the dissatisfaction with the GOP is even starting to infect Texas! Woo hoo!

Davis supports the death penalty, drug testing for welfare recipients, etc. ..I will vote for her, but I hoped for better than this.

I can let her have these. I know her and know that she is staunchly in support of women's rights, education, and children in general. What she want to accomplish in those areas are so far beyond what her opponent would do that I am totally in support of her despite these other things.
