I do not understand why

the GOP is beating Hagan. she is voting pretty much like a republican ...

N C Senate - Tillis vs. Hagan PPP (D) Hagan 44, Tillis 42 Hagan +2

N C Senate - Harris vs. Hagan PPP (D) Hagan 43, Harris 43 Tie

N C Senate - Brannon vs. Hagan PPP (D) Brannon 45, Hagan 43 Brannon +2

N C Senate - Grant vs. Hagan PPP (D) Hagan 43, Grant 43 Tie

N C Senate - Flynn vs. Hagan PPP (D) Flynn 45, Hagan 43 Flynn +2

so she is beating Tillis, and tied with Harris and Flynn (both of whom I have never heard of.)

and how can Land be winning MI ? granted it is only 2 points, but come on.

Two in particular ...

... in one, a somewhat average looking woman, light redish hair, looks about 30, dressed in jeans, standing in front of a plain white backdrop, complains about how terrible politics are. We need to set politics aside she says. Voice in very somber. Then says Kay is helping hurt people through Obamacare. People are losing their insurance their doctors, and they will die. Its just wrong. She's seems so sad.

... in the other, a woman of about 45-50, dressed well, in a nice kitchen with granite counters, very suburban, describes how millions are being hurt by Obamacare, and how Kay Hagen supports it. Its terrible. How could she do this? We need to help people, not hurt them. Again, she's very very sad about all this. Very somber.

I see both of these regularly.
