Greg Abbott, the Republican candidate for Governor of Texas, won't debate Wendy Davis, his Democratic challenger in this year's gubernatorial election in Texas:
Republican candidate Greg Abbott has reversed his decision to appear in the only gubernatorial debate to be broadcast statewide on television.
Abbott and his Democratic opponent, Wendy Davis, had both agreed to participate in a roundtable debate in Dallas on Sept. 30.
But on Friday morning, Abbott's team reversed an earlier decision and said it will not participate alleging concern over the format.In other words, Greg Abbott broke his promise to Texas voters to debate Wendy Davis. Abbott originally agreed to the terms of the debate, but he turned around and complained about the terms of the debate, so he now refuses to debate Davis.
Greg Abbott has completely disrespected Texans by refusing to appear for a debate he originally agreed to.
