Texas votes early

There was something that I have been wondering, Texas was supposed to vote in the Republican primary in February, then that got pushed to April. Then it was the last state to vote. The reason why was there was electoral districting problems that got take to court. My question is what would have happen if Texas got to vote on time? In Ferurary would it have gone to Gingrich, in April would it have gone to Santorum? How would either of those two affected the outcome of the race. Would Romney still be the nominee or no?

February vote would probably be the same as IOTL Florida - Romney pounds him into a pulp negative-wise.

Santorum in April seems more interesting...

Probably with Gingrich, and that is why I am asking with Santorum

You'd probably see an earlier Perry entry if Texas voted that early. Otherwise he'd be ceding what should be an easy get.
