When's the last time any Pres/VP candidate from either campaign was in North Carolina?
There's no Senate race in North Carolina, only a gubernatorial that looks like a lock. Presidentially, it's as much in play as Wisconsin is, but North Carolina has no secondary races and Obama unexpectedly winning North Carolina would be pure gravy while Romney pulling Wisconsin out of Obama's hat could prove a tipping point.
To be more clear about it, Romney needs Wisconsin, while Obama does not need North Carolina.
That's wasn't a rhetorical question. I was asking when was the last time either candidate from either party was in North Carolina? My memory says it's been a long time, but you know how memory gets as you get older.
