One bit of good House news for Democrats, we are sweeping close races in North Carolina at this time

[stevenleser]

We're not doing well in the South or Midwest in general right now, but a surprise is North Carolina. We are ahead in all the races to watch there. If we end up keeping the house, the three or four close races in North Carolina that it looks like we are going to win may be the difference.

1. That would be great.

[David Zephyr]

2. I just love North Carolina.

I love how it went blue in 2008. Lovely.

6. i moved here in 2007

from CA, so i like to think it made all the difference. O8)

3. Etheridge is up too?

I hope we win them because the four in VA, according to MSNBC, the Dems are all behind.

[stevenleser]

5. Yes, 59-39 with 19% reporting n/t

4. Lots of my clients here in SoCal have moved to NC over the past 10 years.

There are some very blue cities there.

7. Burr won in a walk, sadly

But we were expecting that

8. The DSCC never gave Elaine one dime. I am furious about that.

Rahmn's favored one didn't win the primary so they shut their pocketbook.

Elaine didn't have the money to inform the public that Burr was collecting 9 million dollars from big oil, Wall Street, insurance companies, etc.

:mad: :nuke: :argh:

11. Eh. I do feel your pain, but the money found a home in DE, PA, and WV

Allocating finite resources isn't easy.

10. +1 nt

[Phx_Dem]

12. North Carolina's got Obama's back.

[JCMach1]

13. That would be good news, keep us posted!

[kick-ass-bob]

14. All NC House races are set except Etheridge

who is in a complete draw.

No turnover in NC outside of this race which may not be decided any time soon.

16. and if he loses he needs to look in a mirror to find who to blame

His idiotic pushing of the college cameraman cost him the race, if he loses it. I am proud and amazed we apparently either held all our seats or all but one while Marshall went down in flames.

[David Zephyr]

17. Congrats to you there.

NC is amazing. :)

[dsc]

21. according to a friend on facebook it might be not as good as I hoped

we may have lost control of the general assembly. If that happens we will have a marriage amendment here.

[kick-ass-bob]

18. and we get another of these 23%ers in.

(the 23% national sales tax, that is)

[angee_is_mad]

15. what about the State House?

they are going to go after Bev with guns blazing in 2012.

[kick-ass-bob]

19. I'm not sure that's looking so good.

But I can't quite tell right now.

20. Had a 3 way in 28. 2 AA and teabagger

teabagger thought she would have a chance. Even gave up her city council seat.
