In Which Zandar Answers Your Burning Questions

Atrios notes:
I admit to not really paying attention to this Senate race except to watch the increasing number of polls showing doom for Dole. Politico has a McCain person predicting that she'll lose.

A top official in the McCain camp told us Sen. Elizabeth Dole is virtually certain to lose in conservative North Carolina.


Anyone know how Kay Hagan is apparently pulling this off?
Liddy Dole got this seat six years ago when Jesse Helms retired. And despite Jesse Helms being a racist asshole, he was a racist asshole and a hell of a Senator to North Carolina. People were willing to put up with him as long as he did his job, even though he was something of a national embarassment, the crazy relative we didn't want to admit we had to outside folk, and believe me Southerners know all about playing THAT game.

Liddy Dole on the other hand is an absentee landlord, and hasn't done a damn thing for NC.

Yeah, Liddy Dole's in trouble because she's not Jesse Helms.
