New Senate polls

2 polls came out today. One I don't count really because it is a Civitas poll (shows Burr up by 10) and now WRAL has a new poll out with Burr up by 15. I keep getting emails from the Marshall team about fundraising to add to her tv but I have not seen an ad in a week. Have I just missed them or is she really not on the air?

Marshall on tobacco tax/ children's health insurance

Marshall would have differed in vote with Hagan. Just saw this in Winston Salem newspaper

http://www2.journalnow.com/content/2010/aug/24/marshall-says-she-would-h...

Marshall: "Tobacco is under pressure. Providing health insurance to four million children was a worthy goal, but politicians cannot continue to look at tobacco as a cash cow for all their pet programs."

Pet program?

Marshall hires new campaign manager?

Am I confused? Zell Miller who "In 2004, he cosponsored the Federal Marriage Amendment to the United States Constitution.[8] If it had been ratified, it would have declared that marriage in the United States only consists of the union of a man and a woman, and would have prohibited state and the federal government from recognizing same-sex marriages and same-sex domestic partnerships". Or is this some other Tim Phillips?

Aministration to ease access to internet activity

"The Obama administration is seeking to make it easier for the FBI to compel companies to turn over records of an individual's Internet activity without a court order if agents deem the information relevant to a terrorism or intelligence investigation."

Harry Reid coming to Cary, NC?

Apparently Senator Hagan has invited Harry Reid to NC for a fundraiser. Anybody heard anything about it?

Outside influence in Senate race

Read the whole story.

RALEIGH -- Some of the leading Democratic senators are wading into the May 4 North Carolina Democratic Senate primary, hoping to hoist Cal Cunningham into the fall election against Republican Sen. Richard Burr.

Cunningham & LGBT issues

I only just ran across this today. I must be on the late train.
