Is there a solid senate candidate for 2014?
The GOP picked up the open 11th CD around liberal Asheville.
Exit, stage left.
The US didn’t go left.
I’ll be extra impressed if they can rid us of David Price.
My parents LOVE the Rhino Times! Gotta wonder about the name. I assume it doesn’t refer to RINOs like McCain. Anybody know the story?
Obama got 6 points less support from blacks in 2012 than in 2008 and he got about the same % of support from women as Romney got from men ... so the female gap for Romney was offset by the male gap for Obama and Blacks gave less support to Obama than in 2008.
Blacks and women are not the reason why Romney lost.
Shockingly, Jews decreased their support for Obama from 80% in 2008 to 60% in 2012 while Hispanics and Asians were the only groups to increase their support for Obama from 2008. Hispanic support increased by 3 points. The decreased support from Blacks and Jews easily offset the increased support of Asians and Hispanics.
North Carolina was the only state that ended up red and it had a Democrat governor. All the of the swing states that had Republican governors voted for Obama! There is less than a 3% probability that all of them voted for Obama as a coincidence. (50% x 50% x 50% x 50% x 50% x 50% x 50%). The probability that all the swing states with Republican governors would vote for Obama is the same as flipping a coin 7 times and always coming up tails. Try it and see how often you get 7 in a row. 7 in a row happens less than 3% of the time unless the coin is corrupted. There is a 97% chance that something happened in those states that have Republican governors to affect the vote for Romney. They were corrupted.
Add the fact that Patraeus resigned because of a sexual affair. Was he blackmailed into not speaking up about Benghazi during the election cycle? After stating that the White House knew everything about the attack as it happened and that it refused support to the embassy, Patraeus suddenly went silent.
5 things caused the loss for Romney: 1. Romney’s comment about 47%. 2. Chris Christie and the media’s fawning over Obama during the east coast storm. 3. Republican governors in the swing states. 4. The lack of honest media coverage about Benghazi. 5. Asians and Hispanics.
If any one of those 5 items had been different, then Romney would have won.
Now let’s ask these questions:
1. Why did Christie and the media fawn over Obama?
2. Why did Hispanics and Asians vote against Romney?
3. Why did the media refuse to cover Benghazi honestly and completely?
4. Why did the Republican governors dessert Romney?
Pat McCrory is MR. RINO.
As mayor of Charlotte, Pat never saw a tax he didn’t want to spend.
He actually wanted to put sidewalks on both sides of the street, including cul-de-sacs...thru-out the entire city. It took a recession for that little plan to collapse.
Don’t count on that new Governor in Raleigh to be “conservative.” His transition team is populated by the most notorious RINO’s in the State’s last twenty years.
“North Carolina and Guilford County took a sharp right turn while the nation continued on a leftward course on Tuesday, Nov. 6, with the reelection of President Barack Hussein Obama.”
Another BS article. By my count, republicans gained three more governorships, giving conservatives control of 29 states, which is up from 26 after the 2010 elections.
The only government going left is the criminal fascist syndicate occupying Washington. It’s time for patriot states to start flexing their muscles and harass the Washington traitors.
A good start would be overwhelming the federal courts with lawsuits, arresting Washington bureaucrats on state property for broken taillights and refusing to sell these pigs food, clothing and gas.
Wish CA could say all that (sigh)...
CLEAN HOUSE, including the universities, with a NUKE. Take no prisoners. NC has a chance few states have, i.e. to fire Democratic activists who have violated state laws. Let them enjoy Obama’s unemployment plan.
Don’t be too quick to call Dan Forest’s race. He won by 11K votes out of over 4 million cast. The NAACP has sent lawyers to steal - er - contest the vote. He ran against a black female state employee that was massively funded by the state employees’ union
