” The good thing about the NC situation is that Obama is pouring resources in there as oppose to elsewhere.”
The bad thing is that McCain has to spend money and time in NC and he has less money.
Exactly. McCain shouldn't have to work hard for North Carolina.
I read yesterday that North Carolina has had 600,000 new voters registered this year.
Six hundred thousand new voters in a state that Bill Clinton once lost by only 20,000 votes.
About half of those new voters have registered Democrat, about a third Independent, leaving only about 20% for the Republicans and all the other parties (Libertarians, Green, etc.)
Here's the article at Politico(^) about the situation. The information about new voters is on the second page.
I would love to know what the GOP "get out the vote/register voters" plan has been this cycle.
McCain need only make one visit there and he could do that on a swing from VA to FL. Palin should be there a couple more times.
