Yes, Texas has a Republican primary in 2008. It has previously been held the first Tuesday in March, but there is a bill currently pending before the legislature to move it to the first Tuesday in February. I oppose that bill.
I honestly think that with Rudy as the nominee, Texas is definitely in play for Hillary or Obama. Between the otherwise solid Republican voters who would stay at home, vote but not cast a vote for president, and vote third party, yes, the Democrat nominee no matter who it is would definitely have a shot. At the very least, Rudy would have to pour a lot of time and money into the state which should be totally unnecessary.
It would disgust me beyond belief if Texas should vote for Hillary, but that is exactly the risk that you run with Rudy as the candidate.

Congratulations on getting a response to your question. I get pretty irritated with crickets.
