Nu-huh.

UPDATE: Perdue’s announcement makes me feel more comfortable about coloring North Carolina red already, going into the fall campaign. I was having second thoughts about NC (while feeling more confident about Virginia). But it looks like Perdue isn’t expecting any down-ticket love in November.
