1. Romney

NC is pissed

2. Obama should not give an inch on NC. n/t

3. Good numbers...

If this state is close, Obama will win in November. He trailed in the average polls on election day in NC and eked it out. My guess is that Obama supporters are more eager to turn the vote out than Romney.

4. Remember, they don't count minority voters in these polls

because they think they already know who minorities are voting for. So that should give Obama even more of an edge in NC. I'm so glad the convention is in NC, that should give us another boost as well.

5. Actually, 27% are minorities in the poll

The link has the stats. 20% black, 7% Hispanic.

9. Actually reputable pollsters do count minority voters in their polls.

8. Pretty comparable to PPP's poll which had Obama up by 1

so I would say, like 2008, that NC is very much a toss-up.
