Pate a good candidate

But primaries are there for a reason. If Pitt County wants to put forward a candidate they think can win they should do it.

Pate would be a terrible choice to take on Davis again. It is time we recruit a strong, viable candidate from the Pitt County side of the district

She's a pig, with or without lipstick.

A sad day

The press is cordoned off from talking to the Palin moonies? Shame on the Dome for even pretending to cover the event.

ps. Just follow the sign on US 264 that says "all sheep turn right here." (You can do that, right? C'mon...just concentrate on Iraq.)

Card says: Is that a question on your card? No? Then repeat question, buy more time....Card says: Do you know anything about this topic? No? ...Do you have a card that is vaguely related? No? ...Does the question have any words John made you memorize? No? ...Can you tell a heartwarming hockey mom story? You betcha! ...Give your canned response, even if it ignores the question! ...Did that fill a sound bite? No? ...Say that John is an economic maverick! ...Did that fill a sound bite? Yes? ...You really know your stuff!

Surely we can count on nice non-partisan observations from RTB no doubt. This might be your last "field trip" for the N&O Ryan. Better fill up your tank.

Why is the press cordoned off from the spectators?

And reports from other events this week have featured some pretty ugly scenes. Let us know if they incite any race baiting or other ugliness.

Note that the MS-13 crackdown was initiated in North Carolina.

They located here because of NC's lax license laws. Ryan, you should see how many of the indicted have had an NC license at one point.

Is it true that Burr is the youngest person ever to win a House race?

No, you're right. I made the math mistake. It's been a long week.

Am I counting wrong? Looks like there's only nine.

If Jim Blaine wants his candidates to run our state budget, let's hope they can count to up to ten...
