Democrats are excellent judges of character, as evidenced by the fact that Wendy Davis chose this guy as her communications director:
Here's the guy who decided attacking Abbott's wheelchair situation was a good idea -> @Zac_Petkanas

Zac’s as loyal as they come, pimping that noxious attack ad like a real pro:

@Zac_Petkanas @cd_hooks my straw poll suggests that voters shown this ad are asking "wtf, Wendy Davis?"

Even Chuck Todd couldn’t convince him that the ad might’ve gone too far:
In football terms, this is what we would call a "Hail Mary" from the Davis campaign. https://t.co/qWSXOuKiD7 // very risky

It was a huge hit with the voters, guys!
"What? We showed this to rabid leftists and they LOVED this ad!" https://t.co/Qeq2fUydVw

"We had a balanced panel. It was 50% people who hate Abbott and 50% people who only disliked him!!" https://t.co/Qeq2fUydVw

Focus groups are the least of his problems now.
Bro, my advice would be to lay low for a while. This can only end badly for you. @Zac_Petkanas
— RBe (@RBPundit) October 10, 2014
Too late. He’s already getting pummeled — and rightly so:
I am a voter that has seen the ad. I am a native Texan. And I am also disabled. You people are sick. @Zac_Petkanas @chucktodd
— Mav. Forensic Genius (@TheMaverick21) October 10, 2014
I'm a TX voter. It's trash. RT @Zac_Petkanas: .@chucktodd You wouldn't think it was so risky if you talked to the voters who've seen this ad

Exit flashback:
Recall that @Zac_Petkanas also tried to portray #GregAbbott as white nationalist-friendly http://t.co/pJi9bw9CtF – Great hire, #WendyDavis

Hell of a guy.
