Texas Attorney General and Gov Wannabe, Greg Abbott, has signaled that he’s taking the high road in this race.

Less than a month after boosting a tweet that called State Senator Wendy Davis “a retard,”  the Abbott campaign is doing the limbo under the good taste bar again.

Today they are calling her “too stupid to be Governor.”  Now, this in in comparison to Rick Perry, mind you.  Dave Carney is Abbott’s top political adviser.

The Executive Director of the Texas Democratic Party, Will Hailer, issued a statement.

“It’s clear that Abbott’s advisers are following a strategy of offending every woman voter in the state of Texas. A woman who worked her way from a trailer park to graduate from Harvard Law School with honors is anything but stupid. Women throughout the state know what it’s like to have their intelligence ignored and made a joke. It’s never been a good idea to mess with Texas women. And come November 2014, the women of Texas will make clear that the joke’s actually on Republicans who find it okay to reference such a hard working and smart woman as stupid.”

No shoot, Sherlock.  Thank you, Mr. Hailer.

In this case, stupid is what stoopid did.
