I heard on the news this morning that some of the latest polls show Obama and Clinton in a virtual tie in Texas.

Any links to credible sources that show this?

If this is true it will be devastating to Clinton to not win Texas by at least a 10% margin according to most of the political analysts that I've heard on the news. I keep hearing that Clinton would have to win both Texas and Ohio rather convincingly to have any chance left at getting the Democratic nod.

I've been somewhat disconnected from the political happenings this last week and I need to catch up on the latest I guess.

Wins in Wisconsin and a close race in Texas would all but seal the deal for Obama wouldn't it?

Thoughts?

Sebelius for VP, not Hillary

It is a virtual tie in the latest texas poll. Hillary 50, Obama 48. If Obama wins in Wisconsin, he will have a boost in Texas. Not only that, but the way the electoral rules are in Texas favors areas that voted heavily in the 2004 and 2006 elections (that means Obama's base of liberals and blacks over Latinos). If Obama wins in Wisconsin, he will have the upper hand in Texas and the race as a whole. Obama can win Wisconsin and Texas and lose Ohio and Pennsylvania and still win the race, IMO.

It wouldn't shock me if there were a dead heat. Something funny though: I have only heard Hillary campaign messages on english-speaking stations, though Obama messages are consistently heard on both english and spanish stations that I listen to. I can't recall hearing one Hillary ad on a spanish-station yet.
