Just a tad detached from reality, polls show Texans overwhelmingly support the pro-life legislation Davis spent 11 hours filibustering.

Texas state Sen. Wendy Davis (D) has not yet decided whether she will run for governor in 2014, but the state’s Democratic Party is doing everything it can to make sure she does.

Texas Democrats kicked off their “I Want Wendy” campaign on Tuesday by asking state residents to sign a petition urging Davis to get into the race. The Fort Worth Democrat made a name for herself earlier this summer when she filibustered a sweeping anti-abortion bill for 11 straight hours.

“You can’t go anywhere in this state without hearing Texans say that they want Wendy Davis to be their next Governor,” Texas Democratic Party Chairman Gilberto Hinojosa said in a statement. “Texas is ready for a change — and ready for a leader who will fight for good schools for our children, equal pay for equal work, and for healthcare for our families. Senator Davis is that leader.”

Davis said at a fundraiser in Washington, D.C., last week that she is considering challenging conservative Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott in the race to replace Gov. Rick Perry (R), but she has not made a decision.
