North Carolina Turning Blue?

Fresh new numbers from Public Policy Polling (via Swing State Project) show some encouraging signs:

President:
Obama (D) 46%
McCain (R) 46%

Senate:
Hagan (D) 46%
Dole (R-inc) 41%

The more I look at this state, the more I think we have real opportunities here. The recent economic news has refocused attention on our need for change that works for working people, and that's what's helping both Obama and Kay Hagan here in The Tar Heel State. Not only can Obama expand the map for us here, but Kay Hagan can also help us expand our Senate majority.

But hey, let's remember that change isn't cheap! The GOP will be trying hard to derail us, so let's make sure our Democrats have what it takes to fight & win here! We can win North Carolina. With all of us pitching in, I know we can do it. Yes, we will! :-)
