Hardy and College Dems Call Burr Out

A group of UNC-Asheville students challenged on Wednesday Republican Sen. Richard Burr’s hypocrisy while he was on their campus to promote faith-based initiatives and advise local churches on how to receive money from the federal government.
The students took their tuition bills and textbook receipts to Burr to remind him of the financial burden that college students face and ask why he didn’t believe they deserved some relief.
The protest was organized through Facebook, an Internet social networking group, and covered by the Asheville Citizen-Times.
Earlier this year, Burr had an opportunity to help make education more affordable for millions of college students by voting for Senate Bill 1762, “The Higher Education Access Act”.
But once again, Burr chose special interests over the needs of his own constituents.
NOW FRONT PAGED ON DAILY KOS: NC-08: New Poll and vlog for Kissell
Submitted by Oliver Queen on Tue, 10/31/2006 - 11:05pm.I have wanted to front page this, but it is breaking the margins.
Crossposted at DailyKos, tweaked for BlueNC. -Sam
First, the new RT Strategies Poll. Let's get that out of the way first:
NC-08
Robin Hayes 44 (44)
Larry Kissell 48 (51) ... D+4
Conducted: Oct. 8-10
MoE +/- 2.9-3.1
Larry is still leading Robin Hayes OUTSIDE the margin of error in a race that according to Cook and others is still "Likely Republican." Why is it still "Likely Republican?" The short answer is "Money, honey." Larry ended the last fundraising period with $35.33 cash on hand ... and that's why Larry needs you to give your $35.33 to help him take back the 8th District.
Roger and Me
Submitted by jwrandolph on Fri, 10/06/2006 - 12:38pm.Who is that handsome devil?
Why its Roger Sharpe of course! Along with the officer corps of the Appalachian State University College Democrats. Can you guess which one I am? (PS...why did you immediately guess the blogger looking one with the laptop strung from his back?)
Roger gave a fantastic speech about healthcare for all, ending the Iraq war, and higher education.
Virginia Foxx thinks that the federal government has no place in education (coincidentally, she attended (and was fired from) Appalachian State University - an NC public school).
