the Obama primary (which actually brought me back to both politics and posting at DU). I worked as a co-precinct leader down here & the feelings were very mixed. There was definite support for Obama, but the Latina women really wanted Hillary. One reason I'm not as down on her as some people are, even though she is overall centrist, is that she could be the one to pull Texas into play for the dems. Even if she's not the candidate she would be very helpful to campaign efforts down here. Change is definitely coming to Texas and I welcome it.
