Not a firewall but the Alamo? - Interesting analysis via First Read: "Check out how Obama could benefit in how delegates are allocated in Texas. From the New York Times Nagourney: "Clinton faces another problem there in the form of that state's unusual delegation allocation rules. Delegates are allocated to state senatorial districts based on Democratic voter turn-out in the last election. Bruce Buchanan, a professor of political science at the University of Texas at Austin, noted that in the last election, turnout was low in predominantly Hispanic districts and unusually high in urban African-American districts."

Hillary wants those delegates, but Obama might get them. Sweet, sweet irony!
