1. Travis, Harris, and Dallas couinties also voted for Obama!
My country, Travis, went 66% for Obama.

By 2012, Texas will be blue again.

8. One good thing -- Democrats know how to early vote now!
I'll bet you that you lost the absentee vote and the election day vote.

Don't feel bad, get to work! Dallas did it, you can too! :kick:

12. I'm in Tarrant...
I'm in Tarrant... we're working all over the place. Wendy Davis overcame an entrenched power thanks to the strength of the grass roots Democrats in Tarrant County!

13. Go Tarrant!
I *know* you guys are working. :D

Plus, you're our neighbor. That blue tends to leak over a little bit. :D

11. For those interested
here's a breakdown by county.

To me, the big shocker is Fort Bend (home of Delay headquarters). It's just shy of blue. :)
