Hagan Joins Senate Race
State Sen. Kay Hagan said Tuesday she will join the race to challenge U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Dole next year, three weeks after saying she wouldn’t run and a week after the only other Democrat in the race said he is gay.
“I’ve had a change of heart. I’m throwing my hat into the ring and going forward,” Hagan said.
Regardless of what Hagan says, I am convinced she is running because Jim Neal came out of the closet with his homosexuality. In a conservative state like North Carolina that will work against him in the general and lead to a Dole reelection.
