Welcome Mr. Randall. Brad Miller has to go. You have my vote.

I think Brad Miller is VERY in touch with his district. He answers EVERY question or challenge I send him, and he is always open to new thought. He is not there for glory or fame, just to get things done.

“I believe the current representative is out of touch,” Randall said.

Randall moved to North Carolina last fall...

Hilarious.

I agree with Whaler - plus Randall must not be very political saavy!

The 2010 elections will give way quickly to redistricting - Mr. Randall might be better suited to wait until post 2010 to see how the new lines are drawn and then make a decision.

Just my two cents - but no name recognition, just moved to the area, a McCain follower = no challenge to Miller

Lived here since October, and already has run for State GOP Chair and now Congress. An ambitious fella. Perhaps he should take some time first and learn about the people he hopes to represent. That might increase his credibility some.

You mistake facts for criticism

I didn't criticize the guy. I'm a big fan of veterans ... I'm one myself. Plus my dad retired from the Navy as a Master Chief Hospital Corpsman. I couldn't be more proud of him.

I just think it's ironic that so many conservatives who have been paid all their lives to work for the government spend so much of their energy finding fault with their employer.

If I were going to be critical, I'd have said hypocritical instead of ironic.

Thanks for the nap suggestion. Unfortunately I work for a living. In the private sector.

You're reaching Protzman -- I don't think any credible Republican will or has criticized veterans' benefits. Go back to your afternoon nap; I'm sure you'll need to save your strength for the afternoon crusade on your "blog".

42 and retired from the Navy?

James_Protzman — Fri, 26 Jun 2009 12:28:10 -0400

Living off government largesse funded by taxpayers? Now looking for another government job so he can complain about government and get paid to do so?

Somehow I don't imagine Congressman Miller will be all that worried.

Bob Pruett, 3rd District Chairman and President of the North Carolina District Chairman's Association volunteered for Chad Adams campaign for months. He was in the inner circle. Except for one thing. Adams knew that Pruett was an ethical man and wouldn't except his affair and porn filled emails, so he told Bob it was all a lie, made up by a crazy woman.

After Pruett looked over the emails OBJECTIVELY, noticing IP addresses and personal information that could not have been fake, he confronted Chad and was told that indeed the affair was true and the emails were legit. He told him that everybody knew from the beginning, including Art Pope, but that they had to have a candidate so it was determined they could cover it up.
