In his recent subscriber-only Political Report, Davis said it’s in the
numbers. For starters, he says, the landscape isn’t good for Hagan. No N.C.
Democrat has won a second term in the U.S. Senate since 1968, the party is “in
shambles,” polls show it tied, midterms aren’t kind to the White House and
Hagan told the lie of the year when it came to healthcare.
“So, if it comes down to a race between Sen. Kay Hagan and
Speaker Thom Tillis, it is highly likely that the two equally capable and
equally funded combatants will be surrounded by equally savvy consultants and
have the backing of equally malicious super PACs,” he writes. “Which brings me
back to those facts and numbers (above), and why I believe that Thom Tillis is
likely to upset Kay Hagan in North
Carolina ’s U.S. Senate race.”
