Wendy Davis taps veteran Dem strategist for campaign


Catalina Camia, USA TODAY 11:37 a.m. EDT October 28, 2013

What ties Texas gubernatorial candidate Wendy Davis and Sen. Tammy Baldwin?

That would be Karin Johanson, the veteran Democratic political operative Davis hired to manage her campaign. Johanson managed Baldwin's successful campaign last year in Wisconsin, when the Democratic lawmaker beat veteran Republican Tommy Thompson.

Davis, perhaps best known nationally for her marathon filibuster against an anti-abortion bill, announced Johanson's hiring on Sunday.

Johanson has some serious political chops, having run the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee in 2006 when her party took back the House and put California Rep. Nancy Pelosi into the speaker's chair. She's also a former aide to Maryland Rep. Steny Hoyer, who now serves as House minority whip.

I found out that only the color of Wendy Davis's come in 8 Narrow! I ordered them off of Amazon .

And no, you can't just wear a lot of socks if you have a narrow foot, especially with running shoes, because when you have a high arch like I do, you have a tendency to wear the outside of the shoe and your feet float around too much.

LOL Didn't mean to go off on my shoe issues, but the good news is that I found them in narrow and they weren't horribly expensive!

I love Wendy

I found them here, and they have 8 N !!! I wonder if that's why she wears them, because it is difficult to find narrow width shoes?

Someone posted this last month: Wendy Davis for Texas Governor!!! Okay DU it's your turn now. http://www.democraticunderground.com/10023781569

This is one Texan I would like to see eventually make it to the White House. If she spends Eight years as Governor, there might be an opening for her.
