Everybody has 15 minutes of fame, and it appears the incumbent Texas Attorney General is using up his time. And, it appears that his lawsuit against health care reform was his ticket to an invitation to appear on Sean Hannity's Fox News program.

When the incumbent Attorney General was interviewed by Sean Hannity, he wasn't challenged to defend his use of taxpayer dollars to pursue a legal loser of a case.  When Barbara Ann challenges him on the issue he immediately goes negative with personal attacks.

You know it's a race when the incumbent goes negative, attacking his challenger more than 7 months out. We are pleased he's worried about his job. Your donation of $1,500, $150, $15 will send a loud message to Attorney General Abbott that Texans are ready for his 15 minutes to come to an end.

Attorney General Abbott has fallen into a pattern of pursuing losing litigation to try to lock up his base for future political ambitions.  Barbara Ann highlights the Attorney General's inconsistencies and politically motivated use of the court system with press releases on EPA, Americans with Disabilities Act, health care reform, insurance and utility regulation, the unconstitutional margin tax, redistricting, and consumer protection.  She has listed his deficiencies and the power of the Attorney General to fight fraud and protect insurance and utility consumers.  She explained the Attorney General's primary role in enabling Tom Delay's mid-decade redistricting and unconstitutional margin income tax.

Please help us on this last day of quarter one of 2010. Barbara Ann will continue to press hard on the issues but we need your support to keep up the pressure.  We know that Mr. Abbot is using up his 15 minutes and he doesn't like being pressured.  He would rather talk issues with Sean Hannity than his opponent. Mr. Abbott's 15 minutes are up and it's time for an Attorney General who wants to work to protect the people of Texas.  Please donate $1,500, $150, or $15 today.  

We stated that Attorney General Abbott was engaged in headline-seeking behavior with his health care reform lawsuit. While Mr. Abbott continues to pursue the media limelight at the expense of the people of Texas, Barbara Ann will continue to talk about the issues. Please help us continue to build a campaign that is rich with issues and reasoned debates.
