Washington, DC, Sep. 9 (UPI) -- The North Carolina Senate race heated up Thursday as the GOP accused Democrat Senate candidate Erskine Bowles of avoiding his party's presidential nominee.
Bowles, former President Clinton's chief of staff, "has made a habit of refusing to publicly appear with John Kerry and John Edwards, usually by having an event somewhere far away," said a spokesman for GOP Senate candidate Richard Burr. While Kerry campaigned in North Carolina Tuesday, Bowles was raising funds in Washington.
The Bowles campaign told UPI the charge was "ludicrous" and he was merely doing what must be done to be elected.

ROFLMAO, Bowles wants to win, that's why he is ducking Kerry & Edwards
How is this seat looking for us? What about Patty Murray's?
Maybe he should have a photoshopped pic of him and Bush hugging a la Daschle.
Oh my, this is a SURE sign that Lurch's tugboat is sinking!!
Ping worthy?
ROTFL! That is hilarious.
We have a winner in the pool. Who had Bowles? C'mon. Fess up. I know one of you had to pick him as the first rat to jump ship.
Easley didn't show up either! Not any of the times he's been here......nor Edwards either?
Remember the first big rally they had down here at NC State to kickoff their campaign: blocks from Easley's office; he's nowhere to be found.

Hey, you can not blame the guy. If he was really smart he would leave the "Rat" party.
LOLOLOLOLOl
I hope we have a picture of Bowles and Kerry together. We will
handcuff Kerry to Bowles whether Ol' Erskine likes it or not.
.

Hehehehehhe!!!! Just gets better and better. Thank you, Dan Rather and other CBS incompetents! RAT candidates running from Kerry. It was just a matter of time. But we won't see the CBS,CNN, and ABC et al. reporting this.
I can't stop laughing at the WH handing out copies of CBS faked documents. Talk about an unfair fight.
LOL!
Bowles is running again? Didn't he just lose a short while ago?
Ray Charles could see those Documents on 60 Minutes were forgeries. The Signature was so far off that no Bank in this country would cash a check with that piss poor attempt of forging Lt. Col Jerry Killian's signature
Kerry = Iceburg
This is amusing.
Let's hope that Richard Burr can garner enough support and ride George W. Bush's coattails, for what we don't need is for Bowles to take the other wealthy guy's seat (Edwards). With his strong ties to the Clintons, North Carolina would lose ground for sure in 2008.
