Obama Campaign Has Not Given Up On North Carolina

According to Politico, GOP nominee Mitt Romney is still leading President Barack Obama in the most recent polls for swing state North Carolina.

CNN reported that Obama won the last presidential debate yesterday night, and even though many sources reported that Obama has given up on winning the state’s electoral votes, top campaign officials have rejected such reports.

“We are doubling down, we are not pulling back at all,” David Axelrod, Obama campaign’s chief. said. “Anybody who thinks those states are in the bag (for Republican challenger Mitt Romney) are half in the bag themselves.”

The same thoughts and reports were made in 2008 before Obama went on to become the first Democratic presidential candidate to win the state since former president Jimmy Carter.
