The ol' cow ain't dead yet.
Polls show Democratic presidential candidates Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama going back and forth for the lead among likely Texas primary voters, while Clinton leads Obama in Ohio.
Clinton, a New York senator, and Obama, an Illinois senator, are tied with 47% support among Texas voters, according to the American Research Group Inc. poll, conducted Friday and Saturday. A similar poll taken Wednesday and Thursday had Obama leading 51%-44%.
In Ohio, Clinton is ahead 51%-44% among likely Democratic voters.
Democratic primaries in Texas, Ohio, Rhode Island and Vermont are scheduled for Tuesday.
The poll showed Clinton leading Obama 52%-40% in Rhode Island. Obama leads in Vermont, 60%-34%.
A separate Reuters/C-SPAN/Houston Chronicle tracking poll showed 47% of Texas Democrats backed Obama with 43% for Clinton. The poll was conducted Thursday through Saturday.
In Ohio, Clinton received 47% support compared with Obama's 46%. A similar poll Tuesday through Thursday showed Clinton with 44% compared with Obama's 42%.
The Democratic telephone surveys included 746 likely primary voters in Ohio and 736 likely voters in Texas. Both surveys have a margin of error of plus or minus 3.7 percentage points.
The American Research Group polls included 600 likely Democratic primary voters in Ohio, Texas, Rhode Island and Vermont. Each survey had a margin of error of plus or minus 4 percentage points.

If she can win in Texas, Ohio and Rhode Island.. I think Hillary will still have a chance to somehow win the nomination. Sure, it will take underhanded politics to do it.. but let's finally be honest about the Clintons... they make Karl Rove look like a boyscout.
Let's hope, for our entertainment, that Clinton pulls off these states with sizable wins. Then grab the popcorn and watch the fun ensue. I know I will.
