Has the GOP given up on Hayes?

Robin HayesHave House Republicans given up on Rep. Robin Hayes?

An internal document provided to U.S. News & World Report writer Paul Bedard lists the Concord Republican among the likely casualties of an expected Democratic wave of Congressional wins in the November elections.

Hayes is among 10 Republicans from New York to Alaska the memo lists as "likely gone."

"The document provided to Whispers is no gag: It comes from one of the key House GOP vote counters," writes Bedard on his blog, Washington Whispers. The source called it a 'death list.'" 

Hayes faces Biscoe schoolteacher Larry Kissell in a rematch after beating him by just 329 votes in 2006. Hayes recently took heat for saying "liberals hate real Americans" at a rally for presidential candidate John McCain in Concord.

Linda Daves wins!

Robin Hayes is off the page. She won't be saddled with his losing record again.

Fascinating the NCGOP hasn't been here to save the day...

Guess we'll all just let Robin Hayes fall off the page together.

I heart bipartisan cooperation.

I'm sure Hayes denies being denied by the GOP
