So did I. And you have to wonder why.

Ah, in my own defense, I had an uncle named Vernon Johnson and I had a brain lapse.

I obviously meant Vernon Robinson!

And this disruptor is no longer a problem.

Why didn't he run against Dole? This guy drops napalm.

Good question. Except that the establishment had already chosen her Dolt. Howlin, from a first look this is a guy I would vote for. Any chance of replacing a worthless Senator with this guy in 2006?

Ping. You can try to tell us how Tabor is better than Vernon based on made up "rumors". We'll all laugh at you and the whole thing will be great fun!

He doesn't have the money for a statewide campaign. He does have the money for this race-- almost. Tell all your friends to donate a ten spot to him. There are a couple of people in the race trying to buy the seat. He's second in fundraising I think. He needs our help!

I'm thinking of moving to NC just so I can vote for this guy.

Boom. He is $50 bucks richer now.

Thank you for your generous contribution to Robinson for Congress.

Please note, your contribution will be listed as "EDonation.com" on your next statement.

Thank you!

What are you suggesting? That he isn't a conservative despite running as one? He wants a career in NC politics. He knows that he'll have to keep his base to do so. Whether he believes what he says doesn't matter as much as voting what he says. He'll vote the way his base tells him to because he knows that's the path to a major political career. All good politicians are whores-- which is as it should be. They'll vote the way we want so we'll vote for them. It keeps them honest.

Vernon is sincere and he is working his ass off for this race. He would have a huge lead in fundraising if Helvey hadn't given himself nearly $300K. In fact, the #3 guy gave himself $200K, too. Strip out this attempt to buy this seat by these two guys, and Vernon is beating his main competition 3:1 and 3:2 (including State Sen. Foxx).

Jesse Helms' son doesn't think so. He lives in Robinson's district and endorses him.

Damn, that's a great comeback.

He's apparently a Nathan Tabor supporter. That's fine. He should just admit to it.

A good reason to move if ever there was one. And NO sarcasm!

I've received snail mail from Vernon Robinson. It was very similar to this.

Not being from NC, I had never heard of him. For this reason I did not send a donation. But if you folks from NC say he's on the up-and-up, I'll be happy to donate.

I live in CA and I got a fundraising letter to help him.
I was planning on sending a check, but then I lost the envelope. Thanks for the reminder.

If the Republican party were filled with guys like this....of any color...I would feel much better about voting for them!

I've never heard a bad word about this guy, except for these malcontents.

In fact, when I worked at the State Fair GOP booth, almost everybody was saying what a great guy he is and that he'll do us proud!

I have met Vernon. He reminds me a little bit of a bull in a china shop. He is completely focussed on conservatism and isn't always tactful with his fellow aldermen or the "homosexual lobby".

I have also checked his voting record in Winston-Salem for the past 6 years.

He votes conservative, less taxes, conservative, pro-property rights, conservative, etc.

He never caves into a special interest group.

The bottom line is this: "Playing nice" is less important than being a man of principles who votes the right way every time.

Do any of the other candidates have a voting record and campaign finance record like his? Not a chance.
