Nebraska, Texas, North Carolina, Mississippi and Virginia won't be competitive.

New Mexico, New Hampshire, Minnesota, Maine and Oregon are pretty much leaning one way as well but they have the potential to be competitive unlike the ones listed above.

You you crazy??? NC will be a battleground state between hagan and dole. Do you not look at polls?

10) North Carolina

Safe R.  I know the numbers look bad for Liddy now but that's just it.  This is now.  It's a long way to November and North Carolina is still a blue state, not a purple one.

The Democratic Party at a local/state leve is very strong in NC. Dole will not win.

North Carolina won't be competitive this Senate season. Liddy Dole should be able to win re-election in 2008. If Obama cannot win in North Carolina, then I doubt Kay Hagan can either. Dole should be able to defeat Hagan 55-45%. R HOLD

Dole didn't even get 55% the when she won the first time against a sucky candidate.  The go around, Dole isn't that popular, she hasn't done anything at all. Obama will bring out high black and young voter that will vote for all democrats. Dole will be sent back to KS with her loser husband.

See I told you my predictions of their respective margins of victory was bad Tongue. And whilst Obama might bring out a record high turn out of African-Americans and the young, do you believe that Obama would be able to swing North Carolina in 2008? I don't forsee it occuring in 2008, North Carolina, especially in Presidential Elections is a safe Republican state.

Well Dole only got 53% of the vote in 2002, with it being an election year and high black and young voters turn-out, I smell a Hagan win.
