Except most candidates don't have weekly or daily radio programs where they ad lib about the events of the day.

You may want to read up a bit about Ronald Reagan. He did exactly that. Ended up winning 49 states. Not shabby at all.

First, the national media uproar over allowing trannies into women’s restrooms. McCrory supported NC law limiting access to women’s restrooms to women.

So just to be clear: Trannies in the women’s room is a winning issue in NC?

I’m just asking...

‘I’d rather see Robinson run.’

I don’t think N.C. is ready for him. Don’t know why.

He was a decent governor but luckily we had a strong conservative speaker and president of the senate and Mccroy had no choice but to sign tax cuts

“So just to be clear: Trannies in the women’s room is a winning issue in NC?”

The NC law prohibiting biological men from using female public restrooms was an issue in the 2016 gubernatorial campaign. The Democrat candidate Roy Cooper , who was the state attorney general, opposed the North Carolina law. Governor McCroy appeared to support enforcement of the law. The state and national media made the NC “bathroom law” a major social issue during the Campaign. Governor McCrory lost the election to Roy Cooper in a close election (49% to 48.8%). Any voter paying any attention to the campaigns or the news during the months leading up to the vote would have been aware of the issue and the positions of the two candidates. Based on the vote count, it appears voters either didn’t feel Cooper’s support for transexuals in restrooms was disqualifying or were supportive of Cooper’s position.

We could definitely do a lot worse than him.

I used to like McCrory but now I don’t want him in political office. He will be a Senator like Thom Tillis and Richard Burr.

Nice try but Reagan existed before Lexus/Nexus and social media. Now, anything you say, post or tweet is there forever for someone to mischaracterize. Different world.

Chuckle. You are more slippery than an eel.

This is from your post #15:

"Except most candidates don't have weekly or daily radio programs where they ad lib about the events of the day."

So which is it? Weekly/daily radio shows or Lexis/Nexis?
Not to mention every single controversial thing said by any famous politician on radio/TV was easily available to their opponents and to the public long before Lexis/Nexis.
How old are you anyways?

You seem intent on picking a fight and I won’t give you the satisfaction. I stand by my comments. Good day.
