Of course Hot Wheels was “ready for Congress”. He’s a classic Goober to the core and those folk were mainstreamed by the former guy as the sort of idiot he wanted making laws and/or making asses of themselves. Cawthorn’s job was to be the village idiot so that he could distract people from seeing what other goobers were up to.

I’m trying to think, but I’ve no idea right now.
He lost his primary, so McCarthy has the advantage.
Top of my head, Cawthorn could eff with the general (sabotage Edwards), but that’s getting ahead of the whole thing.

But would he be dumb enough to list those monies under ‘campaign donations’? I fall on the “yes, he’s that dumb” side.

I’m pretty sure my Front Range mountain values are significantly different from Cawthorn Country mountain values.

Anyone know whether Kevin McCarthy’s wife Renee Ellmers won her NC primary?
The race was still very close and Cawthorn might have won if not for Independents and Dems changing their party status to vote against him. Chuck Edwards is still a Republican and he won’t pull off all the stupid crap that characterized Cawthorn so he will probably vote, serve on committees, etc., the stuff expected of Congresspeople. Edwards write editorials for the local papers and he is a typical Republican but he doesn’t drive without a license, carry guns on airplanes, carry knives to school board meetings, etc., at least as far as we know. The only hope to get a Dem in this seat is if Cawthorn’s supporters stay away from the polls in November and I think that is unlikely.

She came in under 10%, way down the list.

I dunno, he’s more gop senator material. If he’d been a senator none of this would have happened (because he wouldn’t had to run again for 4 additional years).

Thanks, I was curious about her.
NC-11 is largely the same (unsurprising when 80% of the district boundaries are determined by state borders). I think it went from R+11 to R+5, still a pretty easy win for a normal incumbent. If he hadn’t scarpered over to the adjacent district for a few weeks, then hot-rolled it back home, he’d likely have won his primary (lost only by 2%).

Tillis has a point.
During the insurrection in the 1860s, there was a good deal of support for the Union in the mountains of East Tennessee and western North Carolina. Also West Virginia, but that one everybody remembers.
