Following up on Dole-Hagan
Looks like my previous prediction was right: Elizabeth Dole’s “Godless” attack ad against Kay Hagan and Hagan’s effective response have all but ensured a Democratic victory in the Senate race.
From the Public Policy Polling blog:
It is pretty clear to me based on our polling this weekend that Kay Hagan will be headed to the US Senate unless something very bizarre happens in the next 72 hours. While numbers in the races for President and Governor are basically unchanged from last week there has been clear movement away from Elizabeth Dole, a sign that her ‘Godless Americans’ ad is blowing up in her face.
Hopefully the promise of a strong showing by Hagan bodes well for Obama’s chances in North Carolina.
Elizabeth Dole just lost her Senate seat
This ad from Democratic challenger Kay Hagan responds to Dole’s recent attack ad that implied that Hagan was an atheist and featured a female voice in the background screaming “There is no God!” Hagan’s response is, I think, devastating to Dole and my immediate reaction to watching it was that it is strong enough to push Hagan over the top in North Carolina.
