Obama will carry all the counties in the Northeastern part of NC by 60% or more.
All of them? Even the white ones that Bush took over 60% in? In any event it isn't as though many people live there and Kerry polled over 60% in most of the blacker counties anyway.
So?
No Democratic presidential candidate has led in Guilford by 5% since LBJ (and he only just made it). But it isn't out the question. Even so, a 4pt lead for Bubba translated into a raw vote lead of just 6,000 or so.
I have trouble believing that, but even if that happens we won't be talking about a lead of much over 20,000.
Not that many more votes actually.
Not if the above is all he gains he won't.
