The Insider has another explanation of state Sen. Walter Dalton's spending bills.
The N.C. Republican Party's recently compared Dalton's $76 million in requested appropriations to his Republican rival for lieutenant governor, former Sen. Robert Pittenger, who requested just $1.9 million.
The Republican chairwoman said it showed a clear contrast on the issue of fiscal responsibility. The Insider, an e-mail newsletter owned by the N&O, noted that Dalton is a longtime senator who advises the state budget.
"Some might say the totals reflect another stark contrast: the difference in the two men's power," notes the e-mail newsletter's afternoon report.
