Can/does/will anyone give us some input on how the delegate counts for the state of TX works. From what I understand, the amount of delegates allocated is somewhat dependent upon the voter turnout from the previous election in TX. So some districts will weigh heavier in delegate allocation than others within the state. Can anyone confirm this or add additional information? Thanks!

Hi Guys here is a nice story I want to share with you. My significant other and I got back (earlier today) from her Dr's appt as she is due to have our 1st child any day now. So as were in the room and the Dr. is talking to us about baby stuff, the subject of politics comes out (because other than thinking about the baby, I spend the rest of my time following Barack and the road to the Denver) and our Dr. looks at me and asks "You're a republican aren't you?"....well, that just got me going. A half second later I respond by saying..."oh heck no!. I'm support Barack Obama". Two seconds after that me and our Dr. are giving each other high fives and my girlfriend is just smiling along. We continued to exchange our thoughts and hopes and I ended our conversation by telling her the following, "You NEED to go online to www.barackobama.com and DONATE!". Simple as that! She gave me her word that she will go online tonight and make a donation! We walked in to get the latest on how the baby is coming along and we walked out with our Dr pledging to donate money to this campaign! Belief. Hope.
