Why would the economy need to be a focus when the DEMS controlled the government of NC for so long? Surely they did everything perfectly and the economy was just cruising along, right?

Actually for many years it was. We were also recovering better then most states up until the GOP took over in 2011. Those people are utterly insane. Even Art Pope is telling them to put the breaks on with some of their agenda.

Lots of liberals in NC claim Art Pope is the puppet master, though. Are you saying that's not the case?

How about the "economy they inherited"? Or does that only work for our current White House occupiers?

And the legalization measure for recreational pot went down due to the well funded propaganda campaign by the liquor and beer folks who'd rather keep us drunk.
The friggin Feds mist have been Stupid Pot Heads
