Re: Bob Orr

Let's try to keep the conversation a bit more civil here. Thanks!

Re: Bob Orr

Anyone, democrackkk or republican, who does NOT support Equal Ballot Access in NC, for more choice on the ballot, is hereby identified as an ENEMY of the STATE...

Re: Bob Orr

Bill Graham for me too! He has demonstrated his concern for our once great state. STRIVE to be SMARTER than a democrackkk!!!

Re: Bob Orr

BILL GRAHAM ALL THE WAY .

Orr et al.

The previous commenter is right. Neither Orr nor Smith can beat Perdue or Moore. But more important, Graham can't win the Republican nomination. His conservative credentials are highly suspect, and even the stalwarts of the Republican machine are uncomfortable with his recent conversion to the dark side.

Which give the NC-POG a real dilemma:

Orr: On the payroll of and beholden to Art Pope, who is possibly the most divisive man in North Carolina, to my knowledge.

Smith: Been slopping at the public highway construction trough for so long, he forgot how he made all his money. Have you heard he's a farmer?

Graham: Astro-turf trial lawyer with no experience doing anything except promoting himself.

Re: Bob Orr

I'm supporting Bill Graham for Governor. Lets face it - neither Bob nor Fred can beat Perdue or Moore. Bill can win because he's not a typical politician.

Bill is a breath of fresh air in a system that stinks of corruption.
