A look demographically at Texas and why it is Prime Clinton real estate.
We are now going to be flooded with a new poll everyday until March 4th. Latest ones show Clinton up 16, up 8, and up 7. http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2008/president/tx/texas_democratic_primary-312.html

All taken place within the last couple of days. There is that one ARG with Obama up 6. (ARG I think has the worst record of any this election)
Anyway, this is not scientific but just some basic observations.
First, if you Look at Texas and it's border states you see that it heavily favors Clinton. She won Arkansas, Oklahoma, New Mexico (barely). I believe she also got a good portion of her LA vote from the North West side of the state which is the side that Borders Texas. I think that could have some tell tell signs of how things could go. Texas is a very big and diverse State That one could argue will favor Clinton or obama. I think Clinton will do well about everywhere with the exception of the some areas in Houston(where I live). She will rack up delegates in San Antonio. She will rack up delegates along the outskirts of Houston and Dallas. Obama will get most of the delegates in the 'wards' of downtown Houston.
This was just my opinion and nothing more. It is not intended to start a big fight over who does what. I am just so glad that Me and all my family and co-workers will really have a part of the NOM process!!!!

It should be interesting.
