Unmentioned among the rats for Governor is the current LT, Walter Dalton who is in the race (Perdue’s choice?).
I know jack about him except that he won his current office 51-46 in 2008 and was a State Senator before that.
He's a not terribly exciting middling liberal from Western NC. He's raised some money and stroked his way around the Dem establishment.
Bobby Etheridge occupies much of the same ground, but from a different geography. Perdue has been paying him 6 figures in various made-up govt jobs ever since he lost.
McIntyre could not win given the way the moonbats have taken over the Democratic Party.
There's an opening for a liberal outsider to run but not a lot of time before the primary so they've have to self-fund.
I feel good about our chances at winning the Governorship of NC. We nearly got it in 2008.
