DH and I voted in the TX primary a few minutes ago — my first primary vote ever, and DH’s first time to request a Democratic ballot.
And we both had our cards stamped, so we could participate in the caucus after the polls close on March 4. (Looking forward to it, too!)
Afterward, we walked around the pollsite, looking to see which campaigns have organized their support in our area. We found Obama signs at each entry point, as well as Huckabee — but we found only one Hillary sign, and no McCain signs at all.
What does that mean, do you suppose?
Early voting — we're in!

What that means is that there’s no interest whatsoever on the Republican side!
(How can one possibly get excited by a candidate who is soon to be an octogenarian, for crying out loud!)
Not that I’m that far removed from him in actual age, but I am not running for President of the United States.
I am really glad that you and DH are focused on and have gotten involved in the campaigns. I sincerely hope that whomEVER wins in November will be the right person to continue to take our country forward.
McCain is not a Fort Bend County type of Republican. There is no enthusiasm for him – they wanted someone either more corporate -Romney, or more religious -Huckabee or Thompson. Will they go back to the fold in November?
