I hope Tillis wins. We just see this far too often with “electable” nominees. Pete Hoekstra, Tommy Thompson, Denny Rehberg, Connie Mack, George Allen, etc.

Tillis over Hagan obviously, but NC is a hotbed of voter fraud as exposed by James O’Keefe’s Project Veritas (see link a few posts up). With a margin this close it’s going to be tough.

This happens quite often with a challenger like Tillis. He has name recognition and
good ID in a small area where he is known but he isn't well known statewide. Thus it
becomes a problem in the many other counties to gain that one on one rapport with the voters.

This is a list RINOs who prefer BIG G’ment and have no desire to fight for a limited small G’Ment.

Tommy George Thompson (born November 19, 1941) is a United States Republican politician who was a state legislator in Wisconsin, and 42nd Governor of Wisconsin from 1987 to 2001 (the longest serving).
During his term as Governor he was the Chairman of AMTRAK, the nation’s passenger rail service.
He served as the U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services from 2001 to 2005, appointed by George W. Bush.

After his time in the Bush Administration,
Thompson was a partner with the law-firm Akin Gump and Chairman of Deloitte’s global healthcare practice and has served on the board of 22 other organizations.[1]

Thompson was briefly a candidate for the U.S. Presidential election in 2008, withdrawing from the race before the primaries.
In 2012, he was the Republican nominee for the United States Senate seat in Wisconsin, hoping to replace retiring Democrat Herb Kohl, but was defeated by Tammy Baldwin, making it his first state-wide loss.
