The response of Taylor's office to this article was the worst possible choice. By e-mail, his Press Secretary threatened a law suit against the paper. The Editor promptly shared that threat with all other media in NC. That's discussed here:
Finally, one of Taylor's minions saw fit to attack me personally, in print. No competent incumbent should even mention the name of his opponent, much less attack him.
So, it's been a favorable two weeks. I look forward to the interest and support of my colleagues on FR.

Sorry if i missed it, but are you running as a Republican and challenging Taylor in the primary?
John,
Godspeed your candidacy and those of other statesmen!
"By me kings reign,
And rulers decree justice."
Proverbs 8:15
Good luck, 'warts and all'.
Illegal and legal 3rd world immigration is the critical issue facing our country that will determine whether our Western European culture survives or be driven to extinction. It will also determine our children's and their childrens future.
BTTT, if I could vote over there I would vote for You...
Best of luck!
(Why did you choose to announce at 1am on a thursday night/friday morning??? Oh right... time zones!)
Go John, go! You're going to be very busy, but try and keep us posted.
Good luck Mr. Armor. If I was still living in Murphy, I'd vote for you. However, I ran just across the border into Georgia a few years back.
(I mean just. I'm probably a hundred yards or less from North Carolina.)
You'll be in my prayers, may it be GODS WILL!
I wish you luck. Very good writeup explaining your candidacy.
I have driven and hiked your Blue Ridge Mountains with my service dog - as we have many other places in the US we visited. I must agree with you about it's beauty.
And the RV's are as bad as Alaskas' during the summer.
I wish you well in your effort. Wish I could vote for you but must be content to vote against F'stein, Boxer and Lee.
Godspeed and Good Luck!
I'd vote for ya if I weren't in Arizona (currently in exile from Minnesota).
My prayers are for you personally, as I understand politics can get quite personal and nasty...illegitimi non carborundum.
Cheers!
Good luck and happy hunting (for votes). It looks like the mere announcement has started a few fireworks. heh heh
I'm looking forward to addressing you properly ..... The Honorable Congresscritter Billybob. Just think. I'll be able to say I knew you way back when, before you trod the hallowed halls of Congress.
Best of luck !
Nam Vet
Good Luck!
Where can I email my votes...oh, wait; we ain't Rats.
Good luck!
You know your opponent will be pouring over your writings here at FR. And he'll find only brilliant analysis and common sense. Good luck!
Put me on your ping list. When you set up a website, I want to donate.
Go John!
As for some interstate cooperation coming from the other side of the mountain, I can tell you a lot of Tennesseeans would be right there with you.
I grew up in the foothills of the Smokies on that side. I've unfortunately been forced to move by circumstane, but I'll be back.
All the best!
Good luck with your campaign!
