Obama Campaign “Conceded That North Carolina Is Likely To Go Red”

_____________________________________________________________________

“Former Obama Chief Of Staff Rahm Emanuel Conceded That North Carolina Is Likely To Go Red.” “The Obama team knows full well North Carolina is slipping away – and Republicans noted with some interest that Obama didn’t include any Tar Heel State stops on his multistate swing after Monday night’s debate in Florida. The Sunshine State is leaning Romney, and Virginia, which Obama is strongly contesting, could easily swing red. In an interview with the Tampa Bay Times, former Obama chief of staff Rahm Emanuel conceded that North Carolina is likely to go red. ‘I kind of describe this as six turbocharged gubernatorial races – one in Ohio, one in Florida and then you’ve got Iowa, Wisconsin, Colorado, New Hampshire, Virginia,’ the Chicago mayor said.”(Glenn Thrush and Jonathan Martin, “Obama Vs. Romney: How They Plan To Win?” Politico, 10/22/12)
