Eyes of Texas Primary

It appears it's a dead heat with Obama & Clinton in Texas. McCain all but has a lock on the presidential election and either he or Richardson will get my vote in the presidential election.
At this point I believe I'll vote against Obama by voting for Clinton in the primary. Between the 2, I believe Obama will do the most damage to my way of life and that Hillary will be more beatable come November.
Right now I believe my vote can be heard better by not who I support but who I vote against.

I too will likely vote for Hillery in the primaries. I believe that she needs a bump from Texas to continue the confusion within the Democratic party and force the use of Super Delegates at their convention.
If Obama succeeds in getting the required number of delegates and ends up being the clear winner within the party, the convention will be too organized. Why not do what you can to give the party leadership something other than routine to focus on. The way I see it, if Hillery can attempt to steal committed delegates because it's "not against the rules", I can certainly give her a chance to prove the pundits correct in their prediction that lack of a clear winner will produce chaos at the convention.
I would just love to watch the Democratic Convention and witness first hand the results of selecting a candidate that is not representative of the majority of the voters.

I really don't want Billary back in the White House.
I am considering, crossing over, and voting for B. Hussan Obama in the primary.

Tomneal,
No way would I want Hillary in the White House but I feel like Obama is far to liberal and will do the most to take away our gun rights. I would only vote Hillary in the primaries to derail the Obama Train.

Normally I would do the Libertarian District meeting thing.
This year I have no ax to grind with them, and I voted in the regular primary.
The thought of voting as Democrat made me feel physically sick. There are other votes that are more significant than the Presidential race to me. So I supported some local Republicans, and I was able to leave with my lunch still in my gut.
I am still not all that happy with the Republicans, they cant even front anyone for state Rep. in my district and are letting the Democrats have the Seat completely unchallenged.
