GOP candidate for governor, Greg Abbott, posted a new web ad on Tuesday, characterizing the education plan of his Democratic rival, Wendy Davis, as high on spending and low on proposals. "Her proposals lack substance, throw more money at the status quo, and she is unable or unwilling to tell Texas taxpayers how much her plan would cost," said Abbott spokesman Matt Hirsch. "Sen. Davis does not have an education plan, she has a spending plan.”
