The poll to nowhere
How many times does Easley have to say he’s not running for U.S. senator?
Those imps over at Public Policy Polling simply refuse to take the man at his word and did a test of Easley versus Sen. Elizabeth Dole among likely voters.
I would have liked to have seen a control candidate or two, like a generic Democratic choice or a Congressman or someone. Dole’s popularity has suffered during the past two years and one wonders if it’s Easley specifically fairing well against her or whether any credible candidate could.

I'm surprised she fared that well against Easley in light of Iraq and other Republican missteps.
Easley's achilles heel is the higher taxes he instituted as well as increases in spending. Under his watch, North Carolina is now the most expensive state (ex., per gallon of gas- NC .30, GA .08, SC .16, FL .04), taxwise, to live in in the Southeast.
