littlewolf's JournalIn NC why can't Dalton get traction?
I have seen zero signs ... bumper stickers .... I ask people and they go
"who"? never heard of him .... some didn't even know who the Dem candidate
was .....
the election outcome IMHO
no links .. no punditry ... just what I have observed ...
House - stays GOP ....
Senate - Stays Democratic
POTUS - President Obama wins in a very close election ...
high unemployment is going to make it close ....
Don't give NC to Romney yet ....
on first day of early voting ... had bus loads of college kids rolling through ...
we could still see NC go to President Obama ...
Have a poll question ....
on RCP
They have MI - President Obama 48.6 / Gov. Romney 43.6 but they have the state has a toss-up .... the President is up by 5 ... how many does he have to be up for them to show it is his ?

Castalia town commissioner Clarence Alexander Bender was arrested during a traffic stop Thursday by Nash County deputies. Bender is charged with three counts of trafficking opium or heroin and maintaining a place for keeping and storage of a controlled substance.
Sheriff's Lt. Dennis Wooten said the arrest culminated a two-month investigation involving the Nash County Sheriff's Office and the Drug Enforcement Agency.
Bender was challenging Republican incumbent Buck Newton for the 11th District seat, which represents Nash, Wilson and Johnston counties
