Mark Udall, when he first sought the office in 2008, Barack Obama in both 20, and Sen. The Post usually backs Democrats, including GardnerвЂ™s opponent, Sen. The subheadline names the candidate: вЂњThe paper and Cory Gardner disagree on almost every issue.вЂќ вЂњWhat Was the Denver Post Thinking When It Endorsed This GOP Senate Candidate?вЂќ asks the headline of a piece by the New RepublicвЂ™s Danny Vinik. Perhaps the ugly Davis ad is a product of that cognitive dissonance. But for the doctrinaire liberal, it poses a direct conflict between two intensely held ideological convictions. This is a fraught topic for those-including this columnist-who are ambivalent about abortion. But one common argument in favor of legal abortion is that it allows would-be parents to avoid the burden of a disabled childвЂ™s birth. Liberals also are champions-at least in the abstract-of the weak and disabled. Wendy Davis rocketed to fame last year as an enthusiastic supporter of unrestricted abortion, a cause that is central to contemporary American liberalism. But in light of the new ad, it has the feel of something Davis and her supporters have been wanting to say publicly for a long time. The Daily CallerвЂ™s Jim Treacher notes that back in January Davis herself-then facing criticism for autobiographical embellishments-said her critics вЂњhadnвЂ™t walked a day in my shoesвЂќ and that вЂњGreg Abbott is running scared.вЂќ And the influential Texas political journal Cosmopolitan, in endorsing Davis for governor three days before the wheelchair adвЂ™s debut, described her as вЂњan icon who not only stands up for whatвЂ™s right, but knows when taking a stand means standing for the long haulвЂќ and concluded: вЂњWe hope voters in November turn out for her, so we can all see her walk through the doors of the stateвЂ™s highest executive office in 2015.вЂќ Texas Public Radio reported that вЂњDavis said if those comments had been made by any of her paid campaign staff they would be gone from her campaign.вЂќ Perhaps she was leaving herself an out the ad was made by a consulting firm. The Blaze reported that Davis herself called the comments вЂњabhorrent,вЂќ while her communications director, Bo Delp (who resigned amicably in May) accused VeritasвЂ™s James OвЂ™Keefe of deception: вЂњOвЂ™Keefe is trying to create the impression that Wendy Davis attended this meeting and condones the language in this video.вЂќ He may have a personality disorder,вЂќ another volunteer added.

вЂњWhat I think is interesting is heвЂ™s in a wheelchair but he has no sympathy for anyone or any way. вЂњIвЂ™m wondering how this is going to work out, because heвЂ™s in a wheelchair and most of the slogans are вЂStand With Wendy,вЂ™вЂќ a Davis supporter who is associated with Battleground Texas, an activist group comprised mostly of leftover Obama campaign volunteers, can be heard saying in a highly-edited video released by Project Veritas.

If the tone and substance of the ad sound familiar, perhaps you remember this story from January, as reported by the Blaze: A video released Thursday by a conservative activist group shows what appears to be volunteers for Texas gubernatorial candidate Wendy Davis mocking Republican contender Greg Abbott for being a paraplegic. In that third case, for instance, reported at the time (in March) that the plaintiffs were вЂњchallenging the constitutionality of a revised state law that requires claimants to prove that the defendant had a specific intent to cause injury or harm.вЂќ Abbott, as attorney general, sought to intervene to defend the state on that question of law. The adвЂ™s-and PoliticoвЂ™s-account of the cases is tendentious. (The Texas Supreme Court ruled in the womanвЂ™s favor.) In the third, he helped a hospital defend themselves against a lawsuit after a doctor botched surgeries. In another, he said a door-to-door sales company wasnвЂ™t responsible when one of their employees raped a woman. In one case, AbbottвЂ™s office argued a woman with an amputated leg wasnвЂ™t disabled because she had a prosthetic limb. The spot cites three cases Abbott worked on as a state Supreme Court justice or attorney general. вЂњSince then, heвЂ™s spent his career working against other victims.вЂќВ .В .В . He sued and got millions,вЂќ a narrator says over the image of a wheelchair.
