Texas & Florida Mood

Linda speaks with Paul Burka, the executive editor of Texas Monthly, and John Pancake, campaign editor at the Miami Herald, about today's presidential primaries in their respective states. Burka says most candidates regarded Texas as belonging to Sen. Phil Gramm while he was still in the race, but now the state is solid Dole country. Pancake says Dole is clearly ahead in Florida as well, athough there is no particular enthusiasm for him. Statewide polls indicate Flordia will be competitive in November.
