Judy, that was too funny and as Diana said, probably true.

BTW, they are saying that Texas may be as swing state this year. So we may see some political commercials after all.

Only problem is..... I hate to say this but hispanics as a rule probably won't vote for a black candidate. Please don't hit me for saying that. I'm not at all prejudiced. I've had several hispanics tell me that themselves. They believe that most would rather vote for a woman for president than for a black person, and the majority of them will vote democrat. So if Obama has a chance here, he's got to draw the independents and liberal republicans. Where we live, whites are in the minority, so I have several close hispanic friends. Some close enough to be considered family.

I really wish all the primaries were the same day in the entire nation. The early primaries affect the voting in the other states way too much!!

Janet, Indiana should be a swing state, too. Isn't your primary in March, also??
