Dick Armey coming to N.C.

Former House Majority Leader Dick Armey is coming to North Carolina.

The former Texas Congressman will promote early voting on behalf of the John McCain campaign Thursday in stops at Jacksonville, New Bern and Raleigh.

Update: Armey may already be a bit off-message.

He told the Legal Times Monday that he isn't sure how McCain can win:

"Obama's clearly got the wind to his back and he's got a lot of money. McCain is fighting against the prevailing winds and he has less funds to do it . . . [McCain] just has to stay at it. I don’t know what you could do. He's got get-out-the-vote efforts, but I don't know what you could do to stop the wave that Obama’s riding."
