Democratic U.S. Senate front-runner Paul Sadler released the following statement in response to tonight’s Republican U.S. Senate debate:
“What Texans saw tonight at the Republican U.S. Senate debate was a total lack of political courage and real leadership from four disappointing politicians. Not a man on that stage was willing to stand up for a woman’s right to count on her insurance company to cover basic family planning services. Not a man on that stage had the courage to admit that even though it is not perfect, the President’s health care reform bill has extended life-saving insurance coverage to millions of Americans. And not a single candidate could explain in any meaningful way how they would cut the federal deficit.”
