That's likely voters though, among registered voters it's only:

46-38 Romney

And, it's an Internet poll.

What's even more significant about Romney's 20 pt lead is the fact that McCain only carried Texas by 11 points in 2008. D/R/I of sample is 31/33/28 (R+2). The D/R/I in Texas in '08 was 33/34/33 (R+1). The partisan sample seems fair, if not slightly overly favorable to Dems.

That sample is of RV though. The release does not says what the LV sample is (probably much more Republican if the lead jumps from 8 to 20 points.

So, Obama does actually 3 points better than in 2008 with almost the same sample.

Likely voter polls are useless in the next 3 months.

Let's check back in for that after the conventions and focus on registered voter polls in the meantime.
