I question them. So I guess the statement's in error.

How do you overcome that? I guess she's saying the right things now, but if she's elected, anyone want to bet she votes to renew the assault-weapons ban when it comes up in 2004?
If the Republicans regain control in 2004, and by more than one or two seats, it will make it much easier for Bush to get his judicial appointments through, for one thing. Not to mention if he needs to appoint someone to the Supreme Court.
I'm no more satisfied with the prospect of Dole in the Senate than you are but since it's a numbers game and not an ideological game that determines where the power resides then our first order of business is to get as many Republicans elected as possible.
You say this as if it were something conservatives should welcome. Strange.
Which Liddy Dole is the real Liddy Dole? The new pro-gun Liddy Dole - or the one who's a candidate only because she's the trophy wife of the retired RINO senator who brought us the "assault-weapons" ban?
If elected, will this carpetbagger flip-flop again on guns - and on all social issues - the moment she takes office?
At least we all know what Jim Parker stands for; he's one of us - and always has been - on gun issues.
Is Liddy Dole's recent voter registration in this state illegal?

Let the coronation begin!
Dole is weak gruel compared to Jesse. She will not fill his shoes in any appreciable way but in this media-driven society where media-Liberalism is King, the Dole Bandwagon is what the establishment Republicans are jumping onto, given the threat of another loss. Jesse Helms' shoes are going to be hard to fill (Robin Hayes would be the best Republican to do it). Indeed, the best hope to hold the seat will be the tiny feet of Ms Dole, and even that is problematic. The Republican establishment will assure Hayes won't even get the chance.
John Edwards has proven Liberal Trial Lawyers are admired, even in the South, if they are slick enough, have a smooth southern accent, and mouth the "right" words! North Carolina is changing and has an increasing number of Eastern-Style liberals to vote along with the yellow-dog Democrats.
That extra congressional seat NC picked up in the 2000 census? Expect it to be filled by a Democrat for sure, and that is all that will be lost if we are lucky. The battle in the Legislature for only that loss is far from over! In addition, Robin Hayes' seat is a targeted Republican seat the Democrats are busy gerrymandering into their column. They have an excellent chance of succeeding. They also came very close to also getting rid of Charles Taylor by outrageous gerrymandering until the citizens in his district rose in loud protest and nearly threatened a lynching at the state capital. But they still might get Taylor's Republican seat if the Democrat Senate has it's way - and it may. The 2002 redistricting has been a disaster for Republicans and the bleeding is far from over. We could lose up to three seats for sure, instead of just one.
North Carolina is again going to be a firmly Democrat state and soon. Dole won't/can't stop the process. She is too weak along with the rest of the Republicans. The Democrats are on a roll here. Too many Eastern Liberals have moved here in the past ten years. That is the story all over the country (in the West, it's California Liberals).
The cancer has metastaicized in America.
That kind of strongarm federal bullying of the states doesn't sound too Republican to me.
NC oughta tell Liddy to take a hike.
Bull - Bush's 13-point win last year in a 25%-black state means Bush (mathematically) must have won virtually every European-American vote, female as well as male, married or unmarried, rich or poor, young or old, urban as well as rural (Bush won both Mecklenburg and Guilford Counties - the Charlotte and Greensboro areas), highly-educated or high-school-dropout, straight or gay or lesbian, registered Democrat or registered Republican.
The GOP wins here - overwhelmingly - but only when it gives voters a clear choice, not an echo.
Is Liddy Dole's recent voter registration in North Carolina even legal?
