Greg Brannon is facing off against establishment RINO Thom Tillis, NC State House Speaker, who has been involved in all sorts of Rovian backroom deals to undermine conservatives. He's even being censured by his own party.
Brannon is a Tea Party candidate in the vein of Rand Paul, and is a terrific spokesman for the cause of shrinking government. You can listen to a 2010 speech by him here.

Karl Rove is looking to detonate grassroots candidates early. We have to fight these establishment crooks wherever we can, and I believe Brannon is a good enough candidate to warrant our support.
I concur, I am moving to N.C. and a friend told me about him. Now a total supporter! -JS
Who is Rove’s candidate for this seat? The incumbent is a niece of Lawton Chiles. This is the Helms seat.
Hopefully, this guy Brannon will get the support of the Senate Conservatives. They (tend to) support Tea Party candidates over RINO/squishes.
A retarded chimp could replace Hagen with very little effort.
