Looks Like Charles Taylor is Running

"District Attorney Jeff Hunt said today he will not seek the Republican nomination to challenge U.S. Rep. Heath Shuler in the 11th congressional district." - BlueRidgeNow.com
Jeff Hunt was gung ho to run when we met him in the spring though he was waiting on disgraced former Congressman Charles Taylor to bow out first. Hunt's announcement yesterday coupled with Taylor's coy non-answers to the Henderson County Republican Men's Club make it look like we're going to have to endure another season of Taylor's poorly produced smear ads and outright lies.
The rumor mill says that Tom Apodaca won't run because his wife is reluctant. Carl Mumpower could give it a shot, but you've seen how well Asheville candidates do out in the hinterlands.
Hunt really wanted to run.
Charles Taylor... Are ya sure, Charles? Are you sure? Because you're looking at a 61-39 loss this time unless you have photographs of Heath having group sex with Cindy Sheehan, Al Sharpton, and Larry Craig. You're going to put yourself through the wringer, further blackening your karma, having to deal with agitators - For what?

Woo Hoo......
this makes the research that much easier.
Of course, it'd be a whole lot easier if Heath had zero opposition b/c they were all just too scared. I'd rather face the devil I do know it this situation.
Robin Hayes lied. Nobody died, but thousands of folks lost their jobs.
All too scared
Maybe that's the case. It would be lovely if no one of consequence filed, leaving me to ignore this race and my mixed feelings about our Canine Congressman.
With respect to the esteemed Presidents of the USA

What have YOU done today to elect a Democrat?
I think Cindy Al and Larry
would have to be nonconsenting teenagers for Heath to lose.
News of the 10th district: See Pat Go Bye Bye,
If that were the case
(non consenting teenagers) Heath would get all the Republican votes. Republicans seem to like perverts.
Heath might be a disappointment to Progressives, but he's no pervert.
Robin Hayes lied. Nobody died, but thousands of folks lost their jobs.
You're right.
Heath's a shoe-in.

Restroom political issues in Western North Carolina?
I think Cindy Al and Larry* Drama Queen
Cindy would never come between those two restroom brothers.....Ask yourself one question! If you were a male Senator today and had to go the Senate Male Cloak restroom. Would you go if you just saw Senator Craig enter it? Chances are either one would find a dry pocket or slap on a wig and go to Senate Ladies room.
Great news!
I hope it's true. Please, Chuck. Please run . . . we need another loser Republican to siphon off resources from the rest of the state.
