  • How a North Carolina Singing Celebrity is Taking Down A Tea Party Congresswoman

    Today at lunch a fan/voter recognized Clay Aiken and came over to the table to say hello.  After they talked, Clay didn’t have any cards, so he took a napkin–wrote his cell phone number on it and said, ‘here–if you ever need me here’s my number.”  Folks, I’ve been around NC politics a long time–I’ve…

  • How the Tea Party Shreds our Constitution and Obama’s Executive Powers

    Raleigh—NC   Hours before President Obama’s State of the Union address, Tea Party Republicans took to twitter trashing him, his administration  and his policies as unconstitutional.  Some even used words like Marxist and totalitarian.  Well, they can have their own opinions, but they can’t have their own facts.  What concerns me primarily is the Tea Party’s…

  • Why North Carolina Matters: A Tea Party Testing Ground

    WILSON, NORTH CAROLINA—Politically, North Carolina matters and matters quite a bit.  Once called the most progressive southern state, North Carolina was controlled by Democrats for over one hundred and twenty years.  Before McCrory, the last Republican governor was elected almost thirty years ago.  In fact, you can count the number of Republican governors on one…
