I can't see Wendy Davis winning.  She's a real lightweight, in truth, who had one moment in the sun, but she does not come off as a chief executive, much less a chief executive of a state as large as Texas. 

You don't have to be a "me-too" Democrat to win in today's Texas, but you do have to appear to be up to the job.  Wendy Davis does not come off as a Governor.  I could see her pulling off winning a Congressional seat, but not a Governor's race.

Could she win the urban counties?  Probably.  Would she sweep South Texas?  Yes.  But I believe that Davis would LOSE ground in the rest of Texas.  She's put herself out there on a hot-button social issue in Texas where there are still some moderate Democrats who will not vote for someone who wages a pro-abortion filibuster.
