@AG_Conservative @Cameron_Gray No, they are brave for "evolving".

Quite a few Democrats are “evolving” this week in their stand against a travel ban from West Africa to the United States.

As foreseen @KateNocera: Hagan's 180 on Ebola travel ban http://t.co/wpnUCMfHFa

Sen Kay Hagan D-NC issues statement calling for temporary ban on travel to US from 3 African nations hit by Ebola

Democrat Sen. Kay Hagan on Friday pulled a 180 and called a temporarily ban of travel from the affected countries in West Africa a “prudent step.”

w/n 72 hours every Dem in a competitive senate race is going to favor a travel ban

— Rich Lowry (@RichLowry) October 17, 2014

Suddenly every Dem running for reelection is calling for a travel ban. Where were they a few weeks ago when it could have mattered?

— Ken Gardner (@kesgardner) October 17, 2014

This is certain: the admin will impose a travel ban soon. We know because vulnerable Dem Senators & candidates are now calling for it.

Mark Pryor and Wendy Davis call for temporary travel ban – show me one Dem in competitive race opposing travel ban.

— Karen Hanretty (@karenhanretty) October 17, 2014

Pryor now on board with the travel ban. Mark Udall, call your office. http://t.co/2H4qqLSJVk

Wendy Davis called for a travel ban from #ebola infected countries – what say you, Sen. Udall? All your friends are in. #copolitics #cosen

Old Dem CW: Travel bans are anti-science GOP racism. New Dem CW: We wanted a travel ban all along, wingnut.

How are all of these candidates’ constituents taking the news?

Profoundly disappointing. Also, bad for public health. RT @RosieGray: Wendy Davis supports Ebola travel ban pic.twitter.com/t0C1Rt2MIC

(1/2) endorsement of the reckless and uniformed travel ban proposal by Wendy Davis re: Ebola is why I'm so glad to be away from Texas. it is

— Graham F. West (@grahamofarabia) October 17, 2014

(2/2) emotionally taxing to see good candidates be forced into taking bad positions to appease an ignorant public–all to no productive end.

@WendyDavisTexas will not be receiving campaign contributions from me. #Ebola travel bans protect no one and hurt the most vulnerable.

About the racism question?

Wendy Davis supports a travel ban now. It's just a matter of time before it becomes not racist to agree.
