Jim Martin, who ran as an &quot;unabashed conservative.&quot;</p><blockquote><p>As we tried to explain, McCrory must find something to run as a conservative on. He will no doubt be perceived as socially liberal — because he is from Charlotte. Fine. He can overcome that, perhaps turn it into an asset. But not with a wish-washy set of bromides on the side.</p></blockquote><p>Taylor was responding to a recent <a href="/under_the_dome/martin_charlotte_curse_is_bogus">piece</a> by UNC-TV host D.G. Martin that argued the Charlotte mayors curse is bogus.<br /> </p></div> <div class="node-blog-teaser-footer"> <div class="node-blog-teaser-comments"><a href="http://projects.newsobserver.com/under_the_dome/taylor_mccrory_needs_conservative_idea#comment"><img src="http://www.newsobserver.com/images/front_new/icon_discussion.gif" width="11" height="7" border="0" /> Comments (0)</a> <!-- If permissions, display edit link at end of teaser --> <!-- End edit link code --> </div> </div> <!-- End check for Teaser Toggle --> <!-- BEGIN AUDIO ATTACHMENT CODE --> http://projects.newsobserver.com/under_the_dome/taylor_mccrory_needs_conservative_idea#comment Charlotte D.G.
