North Carolina Republicans are a long way from winning this fall’s legislative elections, but they’re winning the battle of perceptions.
And that battle has big implications for fundraising.
Three sources have told me in the last week that the Republicans’ presentations on their prospects for the fall are blowing away the Democrats.
One source, a Democrat, said maybe it’s that the Republicans just have an easier story to tell this year, with the political winds at their backs. Or maybe the Democrats are playing possum. Or maybe they’re just down and discouraged.
Whatever, the Democratic House and Senate caucus leaders need to step up their games if they’re going to win the money race.
