United States House GOP 4th District

That's great. And he faces the same Democrat opponent in the general who beat him 63-36% in 2008.

Sure, this is a better year, but it will certainly take a lot of work to get him even close to winning.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Way to go!

Everyone was voting against 8 years of neocons in 2008. People were lining up to vote for ANY democrat.

This is going to be completely different.

That's a good point, but the margin of victory just looked ominous to me. And this district includes urban areas that probably vote Democrat no matter what.

David Price has held this seat since 1987, with the exception of the two years after 1994.

He took Wake and Durham.

2008 was the year of Obama's coat-tails.


Blacks wont turn out this year...and many Indy's will abandon Obama...(just like the anti-Clinton surge of 1994)

The key will be TURNOUT.

This is still a tough one.......but not impossible. However, when Barry runs again in 2012, the black vote will likely return to boot Lawson out.

If Kennedy's seat went to a Republican anything can happen this election cycle.

do you realize the number of people in district 4 who showed up in 08 just for Obama and voted straight Dem?

I think that Lawson has a shot at this.

It would be a shame to have BJ for only one term, because you know the Obamabots will be back in 2012.

never say never. if he runs a Liberty Platform. I think he can WIN!!! if folks view him as a typical republican neo-con. then he will lose!!

The BlackBots will be back but there won't be the same hysteria among the WhiteBots as in 08.

Um, actually that depends on how shitty the Republican Presidential Candidate is, which, based on recent history, is probably going to be an absolute worthless carcass of a candidate

It still won't be the same as 08.
More people know the difference between shit and shineola now.

Liberty Candidates 2010, and there is only one candidate left in the gop with any credibility to win a general election as a republican RON PAUL 2012.

the gop better figure this out asap or they will be left at that station in 2010 sooner then they think!!

The general ballot has moved several points in the other direction according to Gallup: http://www.gallup.com/poll/104374/democrats-hold-house-looks-secure-now.aspx

That is from February 2008 and it only got worse for the Republicans after that.

Here is the present one: http://www.gallup.com/poll/125726/Generic-Ballot-Congress.aspx

It is tied. So, if the election were held today, it would probably be Price: 57% Lawson: 43%, if we're playing it safe.

Hahahaha

I'd love to see evidence of that.

Even if people know that Obama's not a saint, they'll still vote for him (and dems) if Republicans put up another McCain, Bush, Dole, etc
