Dick Burr Decides To Take an Interest in NC

Watching absentee Senator Liddy Dole go down in flames apparently focuses the mind for another relatively unknown senator from NC. "Under the Dome" is reporting that Sen. Burr's PR machinery is cranking up noticeably with an overhauled (hip?) new web site, etc.

Expect to see Sen. Burr kissing a baby near you soon.

We hear he'll come wax your dining room table. Or clean out your refrigerator.
