2012 is entirely different, assuming Obama runs and is renominated.
Very true, it has little correlation to 2012, but to me what's important here is that the electoral landscape is rapidly changing in Texas, and th 2010 election will be a great snapshot of that. People vote for who they want to vote for of course, but I believe that this trend will continue to strengthen in 2010.
