McCain won't win by 20 points but I would expect a solid win.<BR/><BR/>The people who are really sweating are probably the Dem women running for Senate and Gov. The Gov candidate, Beverly Perdue, should be sweating. I heard a debate on WUNC this evening between Perdue and McCrory and he sounded far sharper. I don't know if this was televised and how it came off on TV if it was, but it sounded like she is not ready for prime time. I have not paid attention to this race (although I should) but, if I had to decide just on this debate, I would not hesitate to vote for the mayor of Charlotte.<BR/><BR/>Anyone else see or hear this?

I suspect a LOT of the so-called new voters for BHO will just start staying at home and not answering polls....<BR/><BR/>Wonder how many other "toss up" states just went bright red?<BR/><BR/>"Red Means Go" - old Duke fans will get it.<BR/><BR/>-ACAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
