North Carolina has been hedging to the left for years. Sorry if you can’t see that. Conservative is great, but there has to be appeal to the middle too. 35% of the electorate just doesn’t win and more importantly, the Democrats will run towards those middle voters so your “true conservative” will have to as well.
And get some fool like tillis? No thanks.conservatives have to stand and fight. No more uncle toms, no more plantation otherwise we will end up the same place blacks are.
