Desperate Democrats Tap Sally Yates to be the Next Wendy Davis

Have you heard of Sally Yates? If you are a devout Democrat or read one of those creepy political bloggers, you probably know the name. If you are the rest of America, she’s on the familiarity spectrum between Pepsi AM and the Facts of Life ‘Lost Episodes.’ If George Soros were re-re-re-making the Progressive version of Star Wars, she’d be the name uttered by R2 D2’s shaky hologram of Princess Debbie Wasserman Schultz. “Help me, Sally Yates. You’re our only hope.”

Sally Yates is the new Wendy Davis.

Wendy who?

Wendy Davis was a previous not-ready-for-political-prime-time next great white-woman hope of the Democrat Party. She gained sudden prominence for an 11-hour filibuster in the Texas State Senate to delay a vote on Senate Bill 5, legislation to tighten restrictions on executing the unborn. The abortion wing of the Democrat party, which is a lot like saying the Muslim wing of the Islamo-fascist movement, was smitten. Someone convinced her to run for Governor of TEXAS and threw a bunch of money at her. The blonde Davis, nicknamed abortion Barbie proceeded to lie and flip-flop her way to a stunning 59% to 38% defeat.

Pink sleeved “I Stand With Wendy Davis” T-Shirts can still be found being repurposed as dust rags or stained by dip-sticks (of varying lengths and models), but other than that Wendy Davis is little more than a political footnote scraped off the heels of a pair of pink Mizuno Wave Rider 16 running shoes.

I missed the ABC made for TV after-school movie. Was it animated?

So, Sally Yates? She’s the temp who, as acting Attorney General of the United States, announced that “her office” would not enforce President Trump’s executive action on immigration enforcement. But before the digital ink was even dry on the reams of Progressive praise (see also ‘Speaking Truth to Power,’ Episode 1,452,356,123,009) President Trump got to say ‘You’re Fired!’ Now she’s the new poster-child for the left’s resistance without setting things on fire movement. I think there are three members and two of them are in jail for assault. Anyway, they’d like Yates to run for Governor of Georgia.

Sally Yates saw her public profile soar after she defied President Donald Trump’s controversial travel ban. Now, Georgia Democratic operatives and politicians are hoping the former acting attorney general will cash in some of that political capital with a gubernatorial run.

With that resume how could she lose? Refuses to do what her boss tells her. She ignores the law. Is an ideological island willing to ignore legally implemented statute in favor of progressive pandering? The perfect Democrat.

It’s Georgia, so who knows. She might have a shot. But what’s next for Democrat candidate recruitment. Witty Twitter updates?

Seriously.
