Is there a snowball's chance in Hades that Bowles will lose in NC? Mort and Fred were quick to point out that Bowles has never carried more than 48% in an election and Bush's lead in NC will give him some coattails there.
You can't say Burr has no possibilities. In fact, the NC race is tossup. However, they say the favorite is Bowles.
I think Burr will win it. The race has been almost all positive so far. Burr has started to go heavy on TV, and Bush is coming to Charlotte next? week to campaign with him. Burr's biggest problem is that the race hasn't generated much interest yet.
Bush-Cheney04 is spending $$$ to GOTV in NC, so that'll give Burr an extra ~~+2%.
