No other rallies up on Obama's website except Ft. Worth this evening
---which is unusual as they are usually posting several ahead of time.

I am wondering if he might hop over to El Paso---the only major populated area in TX he hasn't covered---for a Richardson endorsement?

Pure speculation on my part. I am probably wrong.

1. I got an email that he will be in Beaumont on the 28th at 12:30
for a "Town Hall with Barack Obama" at the Julie Rogers Theater.

2. He is to be in San Antonio for a rally Friday eve, as well--but it isn't on the website either
I heard that by watching the San Marcos live stream rally last nite.

I just noticed an absence of any "events" until this evening, and it sure would be a good time to have that Richardson endorsement--sooner than later.

3. I wish he would visit West Texas/Panhandle
Besides El Paso, there's about a half a million folks up here in the high plains that never get any attention - from Democrats or Repubs. Lubbock is roughly 200,000 and Amarillo is another 200,000, plus the surrounding towns make if a half million, starving for some primary love.

We want our Obama!

4. I sympathize with you. I imagine they are focusing on the areas
with higher democratic turnout for the delegate thing. Texas is a BIG state to cover in a short amount of time. Keep hoping and maybe you will get lucky.

As NewsChannel 11 first told you Wednesday, Obama's campaign is planning a campaign rally at the United Spirit Arena.

We have now confirmed the event is scheduled for Thursday, February 28. The exact time has yet to be determined.

Stay with NewsChannel 11 and KCBD.com for the latest developments.

8. No. Freaking. Wai!

OMG, I hate those Hub-city bastards! Come on Obama, just go 200 more miles to the north...

On second look, that story's kind of old. Looks like it happened the same time we had rumors of an Obama visit near Amarillo. Turned out to be just a rumor.

Still, I can HOPE ;)

6. I'm kinda suprised he didn't visit Lubbock
I bet the turn out at Texas Tech would have been pretty spectacular.
