Cook: N.C. Senate 'Likely' GOP


The Cook Political Report says the Senate race is more competitive.

The nonpartisan analysts previously ranked the race between U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Dole and state sen. Kay Hagan as "solid Republican," but it has changed its rating to "likely Republican" this week.

"In their effort to put more Senate races in play, Democrats have turned their attention to North Carolina and GOP incumbent Elizabeth Dole," writes senior editor Jennifer Duffy.

Demoruption? That sounds like of like a Volcano or a Monster Truck.

Sunday! Sunday! Sunday! Live thrills at the County Fairgrounds. Come watch as Demoruption jump 23 cars. It's the totally awesome monster truck rally.

The Demoruption Party is trying to buy this race. The only change we need in this state is to throw out the corrupt democrats in the state house and state senate.
