James Taylor will be playing five free concerts in North Carolina as he tours the state to support Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama.
Taylor has concerts scheduled in Charlotte, Asheville, Chapel Hill, Raleigh and Wilmington beginning Sunday. Raised in Chapel Hill, Taylor has at times used his musical celebrity to highlight political candidates in North Carolina.
The five-time Grammy Award-winner will encourage Obama supporters to get out and vote early. One-stop voting begins in North Carolina on Thursday.
Obama has been heavily investing in North Carolina to try and swing a state that hasn't voted for a Democratic president since 1976.
Republican rival John McCain has been increasing his presence here to defend the state.

To VBush. Whoever wins; Obama or McCain, will have the biggest mess ever to overcome. It won't happen over night. It will take years to overcome the Bush mess. And yes it might even get worse before it can get better.

I have a question for all you Obamanites. IF he wins, and things STAY in the trash can or get worse, will it still be George Bush's fault? Will you still be banging away at him as if he were still in office? Or will you regret your decision to vote for a liberal socialist and admit it?
