I remember this. It was Jesse Helms’s finest hour slapping down that Trojan Horse Clintonista Weld.
Weld is a bitch.
He got the appropriate slap from Senator Helms.
Helms is a legend. Sadly today’s NC wouldn’t be able to elect him. Helms retired largely because of his age, and also Rove felt Helms portrayed a negative image of the GOP. Thus, Helms was encouraged to retire, while Bill Frist and Rove begged Liddy Dole to replace Helms.
