Okay, it's down to Texas. 50% of the primary vote is in, and Hillary is ahead. She leads by 30,000 votes.

Hillary has swept through rural Texas. Obama has Dallas and Houston, but she has San Antonio by 12%. She'll also take El Paso and the South.

    Obama is speaking (5.00 / 1) (#5)

    in Texas.  Looking confident.  I wonder how he really feels?  Ah, I think he is about to tell us.  He congratulates her.  Thanks Vermont.  Insists he has more delegates.

    Does Obama have a teleprompter again? (none / 0) (#11)

    He only speaks this fluently when he has one.

    Jeralyn, pardon me if this is OT... (5.00 / 1) (#8)

    ..but I really like how you use pictures on these threads that make both candidates look good. They look great together. Sigh.

    Hehe (5.00 / 1) (#9)

    Every time Hillary would close the gap from the early voting by a couple more thousand, my wife would get so darn excited.  When Hillary took the lead, just before bedtime, she was totally ecstatic.

    She'll be really bummed if she wakes up tomorrow to find out that Clinton didn't hang on, but at leaset she's been spared the agony of sitting through all the nailbiting.

    Anyone have a good recipe. . . (none / 0) (#1)

    He's got big numbers still coming in from Dallas and Houston.  I'm on the edge of my seat, frankly.

    Ok now brace yourself whenever Hillary wins (none / 0) (#7)

    Obama campaign makes and outrageous claim of her picking on poor Obama in some way the following day..so the media Tweety and the Sillyball crowd discuss how O was slighted instead of Hillary's win.
