Question for any of the Hagan supporters, do you have any problem with her family benefiting from taxpayer monies in the form of stimulus grants?

^^that just brings up an issue to me.... i find it perplexing that some people are a "Kagan-supporter" or a "Tillis-supporter". I usually see politics as choosing the least worse politician. I don't get how people "support" politicians, and put stickers on their cars and signs in their yard. It seems silly to me. 10/21/2014 11:37:10 AM |

The grants were available, they applied and got them, I don't see an issue. Even Carolina Journal Online isn't claiming that Hagan helped them get the grants or did anything unethical, so I'm not sure what the problem is. Am I missing something?

a third party vote is just a vote against one of the 3 major candidates, conservative groups are running ads for Haugh expecting it to be a vote against Hagan10/23/2014 8:22:51 AM |
afripino All American 11422 Posts user info edit post |
funny, the conservatives say the same thing about how a vote for a 3rd party is a vote against Tillis. god forbid people vote for a candidate they actually want to vote for. 10/23/2014 4:25:20 PM |
dtownral Suspended 26632 Posts user info edit post |
voters might think that, but actual conservative money is on hoping Haugh steals votes from Hagan. The American Future Fund, a Koch group, is running ads for Haugh
Why a Conservative 501(c)(4) is Running Pro-Libertarian, Pro-Marjuana Ads on Hulu The American Future Fund is trying to convince young liberals to bail on the Democrats and go Libertarian. http://www.bloomberg.com/politics/articles/2014-10-23/why-a-conservative-501c4-is-running-prolibertarian-promarjuana-ads-on-hulu

AFF didn't produce these ads because they think that Haugh is a real contender, they want to steal votes from Hagan,
A vote for 3rd party is at best a wasted vote and at worst (depending on the race) a vote for the other candidate 10/23/2014 4:30:10 PM |

Tillis was ALEC legislator of the year in 2011. That alone is reason enough to vote against him aside from aiding in bringing fracking to NC, rejecting Medicaid expansion etc. 11/1/2014 10:05:57 AM |
