Repugican concerns about Obama 2012 in NC show how bad off the repugicans really are

Washington Post:

By any number of indicators, President Obama shouldn’t have much of a chance in North Carolina next year. In no state was Obama’s 2008 win closer — he won by just 14,177 votes, or 0.3 percent of the electorate — and he’s less popular now. The economy, now Obama’s economy, is in worse shape.

But if repugican activists are feeling confident, you wouldn’t know it by what they’re doing and saying.

Repugicans are poring over the details of how Obama became the first Democratic presidential candidate to win the state since Jimmy Carter. They are trying to pass laws in the legislature to restrict the early-voting system that Obama used to such remarkable effect.

Gotta love that last part. Yes, making it easier to vote helped too many Americans vote for Obama, so we'd better make it harder to vote next time. Classic repugican.
