ASHEVILLE - N.C. Democrats gathered in Asheville Saturday, optimistic about what their chairman called the "tremendous potential" of 2006.

"Public sentiment is against the Republicans, just like it was against the Democrats in 1994," said Chairman Jerry Meek, alluding to the year Republicans swept to control of Congress.

Can't wait to go back and visit again--I was there almost exactly a year ago, prior to the election, and it was a real pleasure to visit such a liberal, politically active community.
