The Texas Showdown

1. Al Giordano, The Field reporting form Texas: Clinton to Campaign in Texas Thursday, Friday, Saturday & Monday. There is little doubt that Hillary knows she must win Texas just look at her itinerary.

Hillary Clinton's Schedule:

02/28: A “Solutions for America” Rally in Houston.

02/29: An Early Vote Rally in Waco with Veterans and Flag Officers.
02/29: A “Solutions for America” Rally in San Antonio.

03/01: A “Solutions for America” Rally in Fort Worth.
03/01: A “Solutions for America” Rally in Dallas.

03/03: A “Solutions for America” Rally in Laredo.
03/03: A “Solutions for America” Rally in Austin.
03/03: A “Solutions for America” Rally in El Paso

2. Hillary raised $35 million with $7 million unpaid bills, and gods knows what she will be giving Penn....But Barack' s kick-butt GOTV orparation and buying 2-3 times Hillary's TV ad time (NBC’s Chuck Todd reports that Obama has purchased expensive two-minute ads “in every market in both Ohio and Texas” on Monday) tells me that Barack intends to widen his Texas lead.

3. Obama's large media buy must be putting presser on Clinton's two state strategy

Update Al- the Field:
AUSTIN – The Obama Campaign today announced that Senator Obama will spend primary night in Texas at a location to be announced. No further details are available at this time. The Obama Campaign will send an updated schedule when the city and location are confirmed.

Barack Obama's Schedule:
Feb 29 Stand for Change Rally with Barack Obama in Ft. Worth, TX
Feb 29 Stand for Change Rally with Barack Obama in San Antonio, TX
Mar 1 Stand for Change Rally with Barack Obama in Providence, RI

I think I need to get some vodka in the house...I'm thinking Apple Martinis Tuesday Night.
