Another R With Problems

Scrutiny Hooligans:
"Embattled Congressman Charles Taylor (R,NC) is behind in a pair of polls just under six months before the election. Previous to these polls, Taylor hadn't trailed in a poll since he became a Congressman in 1990.

The constituents of NC-11 don't trust Charles Taylor anymore. They've seen the good jobs leave the region. They've heard Taylor's doubletalk on CAFTA, the Forest Selloff, Jack Abramoff, and underfunding the Blue Ridge Parkway. Taylor's days are numbered.

Like a wounded animal, Taylor will soon attack Shuler viciously. He has used lying attack ads in every campaign, and there's no reason to expect he'll suddenly evolve into a clean campaigner. Soon you'll hear Taylor's attack machine growling with poorly produced television ads and misleading radio spots. Watch for it.

Heath Shuler, on the other hand, is keeping his powder dry while shoe-leather campaigning in the rural western counties. His integrity and energy serve to emphasize Taylor's corruption and desperation. . ."
