North Carolina is that close? That's not good for the GOP. Even if Romney and Perry start to poll a few points ahead of Obama but still below 50% that is not good for the GOP. North Carolina needs to be likely R state for the GOP so they can concentrate on Virginia, Ohio, Colorado and Nevada
This.
It's not good news for the Republicans at all. And after NC was projected on Election Night, I did not see it as a state Obama would hold onto next time around. I see he's more competitive than I previously thought.
