[You kip if you want to...]

The Dems are getting suprisingly close to Burr considering how a good a year this is for the GOP.

[Lief 🗽]

This seat could turn out to be an upset.

Keep an eye on this one..

[Eraserhead]

Burr is very, very lucky that he is up for re-election in this environment.

[SvenssonRS]

Burr is very, very lucky that he is up for re-election in this environment.

Potentially lucky. He's even weaker than Patty Murray in terms of incumbency - the atmosphere might not even help him in the end.

He has got a pretty effective radio ad stressing the fact that he offered an alternative Health Care plan which was ignored, and his "clear and consistent" leadership. It hits key populist notes and platitudes. An effective way to start out in my opinion. Meanwhile Cunningham is running TV ads about his service in the military, he mentions 911 and how he joined after it. Its also pretty effective, however I don't think he is going to win the primary. I think Marshall will be the nominee and she is very similar to Bev Perdue in many ways which won't go over very well.

I don't believe in the superstitious curse. What has he done that would make North Carolinians vote him out? As far as I know, he's likable and more so than Dole. Plus, the environment is completely different from 2008.

It's not a top-tier seat subject to flip either. There are many other seats Dems and Republicans would win/lose before NC would honestly come into play.

What?

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Burr is on TV now running ads with "common folk" talking about Burr's wonderful consituent services and his support for veterans and their families once they come home.

[Iosif]

Bodes well for Kelly Ayotte.

     I remember that back in early 2008, the conventional wisdom was that Burr was weaker than Dole. As you might imagine, Dole losing looked pretty bad for Burr's re-election odds.

     However, I do not think that the conventional wisdom of the time took environment into account at all. A better environment & no mess-ups could see Burr win re-election by a small but not razor-thin margin.

Burr 2010. I'm gonna get involved in his campaign. I want to help him win. He is the greatest Senator in North Carolina since Jesse Helms.

No I'm not. I don't support Helms civil rights stances. I'm may be southern, but I'm still too northern to support slavery or racism.

You are stupid JC, Helms was a bigot and would have never won a race in NC today. Burr, himself isn't that bad but NC could do a whole lot better when it comes to a senator.

So your hero's are bigots??  Thats nice to know.

I beg of you when you campaign for Burr spread the message that he is the best guy since Helms.  Do it, hopefully it becomes the message of the Burr campaign.  He would lose so badly it would make your head spin....

Thank God for NC that there are not alot of bigots like you voting anymore. Even alot of the Republicans in NC don't like Helms.
