Clinton will win Texas
Clinton state campaign coordinator came on and said latest polls show Clinton in the 60s and Obama in the teens.
Obama will not win any state that has a lot of latinos. Latinos will not, under any circumstance, vote for a black man. or black woman. And that's why Clinton won big in California. That's the story that's not getting very much play. |

Thousands of people are voting for Ron Paul. I wouldn't say it was "lots of people." But you would. http://www.npr.org/templates/story/s...oryId=18718803 |

You are right. I would say 41% of the Latino vote in Arizona is "lots of people." |

36% voted for Obama in New Mexico (to 56% for Clinton). Only 29% of Latinos voted for Obama in California (despite your claim to the contrary, that is still LOTS of Latinos). I don't know what this tells us, other than your categorical statement that Latinos will not vote for Obama is garbage. If Obama can take 36% or 41% in Texas, I like his chances there. |

Did you realize that Texas awards 1/3 of its delegates through a caucus format (where Obama has done exceptionally well) and 2/3 through a primary? The primary is open, and the caucus is closed.

LOL. Don't go in the tall grass, Mike. He's waiting for you, crouching, looking intently with narrow, yellow eyes. He'll rip your head right off before you turn around.

Actually I think he's already letting the cubs feast on the leftovers.
