>> "Self promotion"??? He has run almost no adds talking about his resume and/or experience. Almost everything is about how liberal his opponents are<<
Robinson is a genius at self-promotion. (What else is politics other than self-promotion? How else does a guy beat back a squad of multi-millionnaires whom the liberal press loves?) How can you hold that against him. But he is quite qualified: USAF intelligence officer, A Business professor at UNC-WS, undergrad in Middle East studies, Winston-Salem city council, NCGOP vice chairmanship, filed the lawsuit to end racial preferences in UNC college admissions, defended the Boy Scouts, radio show host.
Simple really. Have them split the vote six or seven ways. Probably neither of them (certainly not Foxx) would make a runnoff against just one or two others. Vernon's best shott at the seat was exactly what has happened. Had it been a runoff between him and Broyhill he would have had little chance.
