Well, this poll WAS conducted by PPP, which pretty much all of us know lists hard to port...

University of Texas/Texas Tribune poll

Yeah, that's like taking a gay marriage poll in a gay bar.

Obama has no chance here, nor a lot of other places.

That’s what all those Section 8 subsidized housing vouchers are about: importing Eric Holder’s people into Republican strongholds.

I live in PA, and I can think of 10 people that I know personally who voted for obama and will probably vote for him again.

You can argue with democrats until you’re blue in the face, but they get angry and won’t listen to reason. They’re also uninformed because they watch CNN & MSNBC.

“If he can win Texas.... I will totally give up on saving this country.”

One of the problems of blue state people fleeing blue states is that they bring their blue state politics with them. An ideological disease vector, in other words.

That said, I don’t think Texas is that degraded yet.

Let’s put it this way...

Obama lost Texas by 12 points to John McCain, and that was when Obama was generally popular and was widely considered to be the Hope and Change that this country was looking for.

Now suddenly, we are to believe that with double digit U6 unemployment, a huge debt that threatens to bankrupt this country and record budget deficits, Texas is going to suddenly love him?

Something is rotten in the State of Texas ( with apologies to Shakespeare and Marcellus ).

Yes the State that 0bama said was ‘a historically Republican stronghold’ - but that 20 years ago (and for the 100 years prior to that) was characterized as a “Yellow Dog Democrat State” by those who actually were aware of the fact that a “yellow dog” could get elected in Texas - if he had a (D) by his name.

Sabato remarks, “I don’t care how much money they (PPP)spend. President Obama isn’t carrying Texas.”

I agree.

If Obama ever wins anything here in TX, then all you folks moving here from Dem states and voting Dem better be ready to move again. Texans won’t put up with that kind of garbage. Remember: “When in Rome”....

He lost Texas by 12 points and almost a million votes against McCain (!). How does he win it next time, especially since the bloom is now off the rose?

There are loads of idiots thriving on his propaganda.

The economy is just bubbling isn’t it? The recession is over and everything is great! The housing industry has had three times the starts last month of the peak period of June 1974.

I’ll call B/S.

Recent polls tell us Obama will beat Palin in Alaska and Perry in Texas?

Something is not right (with the polls).
