North Carolina
Public Policy Polling (D)
9/17-19/08; 1,060 LV, 3%
President (9/9 in parens)
Obama 46 (44), McCain 46 (48), Barr 5 (4)
Senate:
Hagan 46 (43), Dole 41 (42), Cole 6 (6)
North Carolina is massive icing on the cake for Obama. In the latest Prez Forecast NC would get him to 378 EVs.
But a Senate win here, and against Liddy Dole, would be sweet.

It's very easy for me to imagine Obama winning N. Carolina without winning Montana, Missouri, Indiana, or Florida. That brings the win down to 326. It's possible to envision a North Carolina win without Nevada or Ohio, bringing it down to 301. But that's about as far as my brain stretches--there's no world in which Obama wins North Carolina without winning Virginia, Iowa, and the Gore states. So North Carolina won't decide the election, but it would sure be yummy frosting.
