Pittenger's stood up for NC taxpayers since he has been in the Senate, and has more ideas to truly improve state gov't than any other Senator by far.</p> Wed, 28 May 2008 23:25:42 -0400 MattM comment 6938 at http://projects.newsobserver.com http://projects.newsobserver.com/under_the_dome/pittengers_farewell#comment-6917 <p>Thank god. We'll be rid of the guy in the Senate - and there's little chance he'll beat Dalton, who is more effective and thoughtful in almost every way than Pittenger. </p> <p>Note to Linda Daves: Please keep recruiting Republican legislators to run in hopeless races for higher office. It's a double-down strategy that will finally give your party the voice it deserves.</p> Wed, 28 May 2008 10:55:49 -0400 James_Protzman comment 6917 at http://projects.newsobserver.com http://projects.newsobserver.com/under_the_dome/pittengers_farewell <!-- Begin check for Blog Icon --> <!-- End check for Blog Icon --> <!-- Begin check for Teaser Toggle --> <div class="field-item"><p><img src="/sites/projects.newsobserver.com/files/images/pittenger-leaves.jpg" border="1" alt="Robert Pittenger leaves the Senate" title="Robert Pittenger leaves the Senate" hspace="10" vspace="10" width="425" height="273" align="top" /></p><p>State Sen. <a href="/under_the_dome/profiles/robert_pittenger">Robert Pittenger</a> announces his <a href="/under_the_dome/pittenger_resigns_from_senate">resignation</a> from the legislature to focus on a run for lieutenant governor on the Senate floor Tuesday.
