Texas goes to Clinton and, guess what?

She won the popular vote by a sliver (4%).

Some people think that Rush Limbaugh's call to Republicans to go vote for Clinton may have something to do with it.

Early exit polling shows 10 percent of the voters in Ohio's Democratic Primary identified themselves as Republican, along with 22 percent who said they were independents. It was the same story in Texas: 10 percent of the voters in the Democratic primary identified themselves as Republican, along with 25 percent who said they were independents.

Funny, because I was being smacked around a week ago when I suggested that Republicans voting for Obama is a good thing. If they did vote for Clinton though, to throw off the race, we'll have hell to pay in November if she is the nominee.

Just as in Ohio, last minute voters went heavily to Clinton.

Just as in Ohio, gender wasn't an issue.

Race on the other hand ...

So Texas and Ohio were almost identical in outcome --although Clinton's winning margin was bigger in Ohio.

Words to live by

This was included in an email from Jack Carter's Campaign for Nevada Senate. I would just LOVE to see little Bush facing down TR and say he was unpatriotic. TR would punch the daylights out of little Bushie!

In 1918, during World War One, former Republican President Teddy Roosevelt said:

"To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public."
