Wow, and I thought Obama was stronger in NC than Hillary. I guess a lot of her supporters in the state have no problems voting for McCain over Obama. I've talked to a few who either wouldn't vote or vote for McCain.
Do you know what the word outlier means?
Don't throw stuff like this around. There is a strict definition for this. There aren't enough polls of NC to determine whether it's a statistical outlier or not. The term only gains meaning if you have a statistically relevant number of data points, of which this is just one.
