John Ross Hendrix, a graphic artist from Cary, and Charlie Sutherland, a Rockingham County soap manufacturer, say Robinson's brand of politics are too extreme for the district.

A likely damn yankee (most people from Cary are) and a scalawag

"Vernon, with his clownish antics, would probably be a complete embarrassment to the Republican Party," Hendrix said. "He's basically fear mongering." Sutherland says Robinson "kind of scares me." "His message is not very friendly," Sutherland said. "It seems to be putting people down more than needs to be."

Well of course, anything to the right of Elizabeth Dole is considered an 'embarrassment' to the Republican party nowadays. And yet the party faithful still ask why no one wants to vote for party line candidates.

"His message is not very friendly," Sutherland said. "It seems to be putting people down more than needs to be."

Well, isn't that special! Mr. Sutherland must be taking some extra-strength Niceness Tabs.

I resent that, being a damn Yankee who, having lived in that area, now lives farther right (literally and figuratively) - surrounded by blind southern lefties ; )

My friend, I have never lived any further north than Carolina. You notice that I said "Carolina". That's because I have problems with the word "north". If it weren't illegal in this state, I would challenge you to flintlock pistols at ten paces for calling me a yankee.

I'll forgive you this one time.
