Problem is, I don't believe those polls.

Exactly. I don't believe the Lawson poll either. Maybe a 10 point fudge factor all around. Lawson's down 10, Kissell and Shuler are or were up 7, Marshall's down 8. Give or take.

No way are Shuler and Kissell both 17% ahead in this climate

Interestingly, the Shuler internal poll was just released but was taken July 8-13(!!!) I'm sure he has more current polling, but nothing showing a 17-point lead.

I so want to believe this, but everyone is putting out polls that are going in all kinds of directions in this state. This is almost as unbelievable as the apparently new Dem polling outfit that has both Shuler and Kissell ahead 17% in their races, but this at least matches the national trend for Republicans.

Maybe Lawson is building on his 2008 run, when all things considered he did pretty well to hold Price to Obama’s %. He’s been running commercials to my understanding (jern, please correct me if I’m wrong), and is running a much sharper campaign than Randall is in the 13th. I don’t believe these results but I’ll keep my fingers crossed.

Hopefully this news will cause the Paulites to start dumping more money in this race like they did in 2008, when Lawson raised something like $700,000 IIRC.

I wish it were so but from my perch here in Wake County, I’m not so optimistic.

You think you’re not optimistic? :) Try living up here in Zimbabwe...uh, I mean Durham. If Lawson wins, I expect riots and burning tires in the streets.

I wonder if Ellmers is ahead of Etheridge. God, I hope so

I’ve voted against Price every chance I’ve had.

I’m hoping his vote on Obamacare will be his undoing.

Never have figured out what his appeal is (to my neighbors).

Mitchell; Have you seen anything on Jeff Miller in NC-11?

Has his fundraising picked up?
