I didn't realize the City of Dallas was that moderate. He also won Harris county where Houston is by a much smaller margin.

8. I think Chuck Todd said Texas could potentially be swing state in 2012.

11. Depending on the Pubbie candidate I think Texas could be in play in 2012.
I am thinking if Obama looks like a strong incumbent the Pubbies will nominate a sacrificial lamb and under those circumstances Texas could be in play.
