While I don't doubt that there are many fair-minded Texans who would support some form of recognition, my experience has been that the state as a whole is simply not there yet. I'd like to see the internals of the poll...I suspect the sample is flawed. As a Texan, I too find this poll suspect.

Texas ought to be much more conservative. Hell, a poll I saw a few years ago showed that 57% of Texans thought that homosexuality should be a crime.
