The President doing badly with independents in NC
And this is the group the White House is willing to get and throw his own base under the bus.Well you know how this works if a democrat acts like a rethug the voters will always pick the real rethug. http://publicpolicypolling.blogspot.com/2011/07/north-carolina-going-bad-for-obama.html

9. Do you actually understand what polling is? Start with: polling is a BUSINESS that sells something
some people want.

4. In NC, independents are right wing extremists, and right wing extremists are fascists
Too bad we don't call them by their rightful names.

8. Are you at all aware of how CLICHE your post is? How is anyone to credit something that

ranks right up there with "It's not the heat; it's the humidity" for its insight and acuity?

Perhaps you should learn how to think your own thoughts.

15. I live in NC ... guess I should panic about now ... yes????
Let me explain something to you ... NC Democrats are not Obama's BASE!!!!!!

Geeze.

NC is still, primarily a RED STATE!!!!!!!!

Obama WILL NOT ... WILL NOT ... WILL NOT .... lose NC because he isn't LIBERAL ENOUGH!!!!!!

That argument is RIDICULOUS!!!!!

Many of the "Independents" in NC voted for GW Bush ... TWICE!!!!!!

Many of them HATED McCain!!!

What it will take for Obama to win NC?

Reminding the independents that (a) it was the GOP who made this mess, and (b) it is the GOP who continues to prevent any effort to clean up the mess.

Obama's actual base will vote for him. Those who claim to be is base and yet also threaten to stay home, are NOT his base.

20. Oh that is just so awful. Those poor bus people.
And they are repubs or maybe Democrats? Do they live under the bus all happy since they hate the President so much?
