GOTV for President Obama in NC may have coattails!

I just received an e-mail from the race for Governor and
Dalton's campaign manager claims Dalton (D) is ahead by 49-44%!

No link was provided, but I'll check around to see what I can find.


Woo-hoo!

1. That would be amazing

He was reported to be down 54-43 earlier this week.

3. I know! I can't find anything checking local news sources so I've sent an

e-mail back to Dalton's campaign manager asking for a link.

I had hoped that if we got a BIG Dem turnout--which, so far, we are--
it would translate to a victory for Walter Dalton.

2. This is great news!

Isn't McCrory ahead by 10 in the polls or has that narrowed?

4. I rather doubt it.

But if it gets people to show up and saves some down-ballot races... great.

Heck... If the national race shifts a bit, the president could win the state.

But someone is going to have to get McCrory to make a rape/maccacca blunder to get this one back in the game... and I can't imagine his handlers are letting him anywhere near an interview.

5. It all depends on how many Dems are new voters

If most of these votes are people unlikely to vote November 6 this is huge

If 90% of them were going to the polls November 6, it's no big deal.

Given the Dem issues with turnout over the years, I suspect NC may yield a lot of surprises, just from Obama's ground game being so frickin' good!

6. That close up of McCrory in one of his ads....

to put it politely.. he has a face that I I wouldn't want to look at in the coming years. Just creepy.

Not to mention the fact that he is Big Energy's favorite guy. Totally in their pocket.
