Wendy Davis problems go beyond biography

Paul Burka:
Now that details about Wendy Davis's biography have been called into question, the spotlight needs to focus on the Davis campaign. It cannot afford to make unforced errors like these, and it certainly can't turn around try to blame the Greg Abbott campaign for them (the last time I checked, Wayne Slater was a political journalist, not a political operative). Of course, these aren't the first missteps: she was unable to estimate how much her education plan would cost the state, and her campaign fouled up its own math when it tried to attack Abbott over contributions from payday lenders. The words "not ready for prime time" come to mind, a concern that some Democrats privately shared with me months ago.
...
She makes proposals she can't defend and that is something no biography can cover up.  She got in this box on the bio, because she thought it would be smart to ru on it and probably polled well before the inconsistencies came out.  She is now on the defensive and her opponent is not responsible for that, yet.
