PPP is saying that the Democrats should run Erskine Bowles:
"We've tested a number of Democratic alternatives to Bev Perdue over the last year and Bowles was the only one who didn't trail McCrory. In October we found the two tied at 42%....
...In 2004 Bowles was burdened by a Kerry/Edwards ticket that was very weak in North Carolina and lost the state by 12 points. What people might forget is that Bowles lost by only 5 points, outrunning the Presidential ticket by 7. The Presidential landscape in North Carolina has changed dramatically since 2004 and with the state looking like a dead heat if Bowles could outrun Obama by just 2-3 points he'd probably find himself in the Governor's Mansion."
Oh please, McCory would wipe the table with Bowles.
