John McCain (R-AZ) has the support of voters in the Tar Heel State, the Public Policy Polling said on Tuesday. The presumptive Republican nominee leads Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL), 45% to 41% in the state. Five percent of voters declared their support for Libertarian candidate Bob Barr and 9% said they were still undecided. McCain is ahead of Obama among lifelong residents in North Carolina, 49% to 36%, while the Illinois senator has the edge among voters who moved to the state from somewhere else, 46% to 40%. The Arizona senator also has a stronger hold on his voter base, with 83% support from self-described Republicans while Obama trails with 67% from Democrats. "This may no...
Michael Munger Libertarian candidate for Governor in North Carolina in the
2008-06-17 09:34:00 Here is a article on our Governor candidate in North Carolina. Michael Munger might be the best candidate the Libertarian party has running anywhere in the country.N.C. Libertarian runs for serious attention By Mark BinkerStaff Writer Tuesday, Jun. 17, 2008 3:00 am Should Munger be included in the debates? (Web) RALEIGH — Libertarian candidate for governor Michael Munger's name will be on the ballot alongside Democrat Bev Perdue and Republican Pat McCrory. So, the Duke political science professor reasons he should be alongside them at upcoming debates. But at least one upcoming debate will exclude him while other hosts are having to be reminded that North Carolina officially has three parties. "If I'm invited to the debate, and I do a bad job, voters are going to say 'I'm not interested,'" Munger said. "If I do a good job, if I raise some ideas, some issues that other people aren't talking about, I can make the political system more competitive, more transparent.......
Obama Gives Powerhouse Economic Address in North Carolina
2008-06-09 19:46:00 Barack Obama just gave a powerhouse speech on economic policy in North Carolina. The highlights of what he called for include:-a windfall profit tax, to pay for some of the rest of his economic program (makes sense: billionaires will still be billionaires, even if they pay twice as much tax as currently, and huge corporations will still be huge)-a new thousand dollar tax rebate for more than 90% of American wage earners, to give some immediate help with soaring gas and food costs-universal health care, and partnering with Elizabeth Edwards to fine tune itObama also contrasted his program with John McCain's, which offers no catastrophic health insurance, makes it easier not more difficult for insurance companies to deny coverage, takes no position on what to about the current housing crisis, and now, incredibly, endorses Bush's tax policy of giving the most wealthy even more money (after McCain initially and wisely opposed it).North Carolina hasn't gone Democratic in a Presidenti...

Now, the town council has passed an ordinance that will allow them to fine people that do not get their dogs and cats spayed and nuetured. Okay?in some cases it is a good idea to get your pets fixed, no question? What is the question is, Is It The Government?s Business to tell you How to raise your pets ??

Eden, Danville and White Oak Family Campground, North Carolina - Virgina
2008-05-12 04:19:00 Before we leave for Danville, Virgina on the 1st of May, the Mayor of Eden, John Grogan came to visit us at the Hampton. Ms. Duncan also came to see Bill off, and got to ride Blackie. Bill saw “lots of old farms, colonial houses and barns, deer, turkey; the heart land of Virgina and North Carolina. The rolling hills where a bit tough going.” Brenda made a rest stop between Eden and Danville, but when Bill arrived he set us on. We drove to the intersection of 770 and 58. There was quite a bit of traffic and so Brenda made a quick decision to drive across the road to Faith Memorial Baptist Church. Brenda made calls to some leads, but nothing paned out, so she got permission to stay outside the church, rather then try to find a place farther in town. In the morning Charles and Luise Bliss came to see us off. Will Roberts with Rawhide Ridge Farm stopped by with enough feed to finish the journey. Wow thanks! Mr. and Mrs. Bliss gave Bill a route that would allow him to circu...

Madison to Eden, North Carolina
2008-05-12 02:16:00 Brenda and I stopped in the Walmart parking lot in Mayadon, which is about 5 miles from the Budget Inn we stayed in the night before. We bought some bottled water, meat for dinner, and some other supplies. When Bill arrived, Brenda and he walked over to the Burger King near by to grab some breakfast. Robert and Olivia Knight came over while Bill was sipping his coffee. As you can imagine, a horse standing in a Walmart parking lot isn't something you see every day; we often meet people in these curious situations. We talked to these two for awhile before heading on down the road. Bill and Blackie left traveling east on Highway 770 and we drove on ahead to the city of Eden, into town and found a place to park. As usual, Brenda got on the cell phone and started making calls, trying to find a place for us to stay. After calling the Chamber of Commerce, Brenda was put in contact with Michael Dougherty who is the Director of Business Development for Eden. Mr. Dougherty was enthusiastic a...
The Mud Hole to Madison, North Carolina
2008-05-09 21:51:00 It rained all night at the mud hole. In th morning it had stopped, making it easier to take down the canopy and load up the panels. Brenda and I headed to Madison, North Carolina hoping to get a hotel room, so we all could shower, since we hadn't had one since Yadkinville. The rain started up again on our way to town, lucky for Bill he had his plastic rain coat with him. Brenda made some calls and found that the Budget Inn was the only motel in town (or near town). We're not to picky, although it would have been nice if the Budget Inn would have had internet, all we really wanted was some beds and a shower. Our first clue that this wasn't going to be a 4 star place should have been the sign that said no refunds. I think next time we see such a sign we will ask to see the room which we will be staying in before we pay. Anyway the room was completely filthy, and although I wasn't to keen on posting them before, after taking a second look at the pictures Brenda took I have decide...
Rural Hall to the Mud Hole, Somewhere Near Walnut Cove, North Carolina
2008-05-09 20:27:00 Brenda and I said our good byes and gave our thanks to the folks at Beaver Creek Farms and headed on past Bill shortly after he left. It can be depressing leaving a lively place and getting back on the road. As soon as we start to get to know people we have to leave. We have done this many times during this cross country trip. We made a quick stop down the road, and headed to Walnut Cove after. Angie came along from Bever Creek Farms to this point and she took some of Brenda's jeans back home to wash. The rest of the laundry Brenda took to the laundry mat which was near. A previous lead for places to stay didn't pan out, and so Brenda got on the phone. She contacted the Walnut Cove Police Department, and shortly there after Deputy Sink arrived. Bill was taking a bit longer then normal, and we learned from Deputy Sink that Bill was about a mile north of us; turns out he took a short cut. Deputy Sink Relayed our location and when Bill arrived proceeded to assist us in finding a lo...

Angie and her father brought us some stew the previous evening during the truck pull event. Brenda and Bill visited with them, and talked over the route Brenda had planned. Bill always welcomes company when he rides; having someone to talk to helps pass the time. Brenda drove up ahead to a place called O-Henry's Restaurant. We where hungry so we got some breakfast while waiting for Bill. We met the owner, Ms. Bowman, and she told us a bit about her place (watch the video). Brenda escorted the pair across the Yadkin River, as there was “no escape route” as Bill would say. We make a second stop at Tobaccoville before making our final stop at Beaver Creek Farm in Rural Hall. Owner Ed Wall visited with us and later that evening we met some of his family.

Barack Obama Wins North Carolina Primary; Indiana Still Too Close to Call
2008-05-07 18:31:00 Hillary Clinton is ahead in Hoosier State, but CNN awaits results from two counties.By Gil Kaufman Michelle and Barack Obama celebrate his win of North Carolina on Tuesday Photo: Win McNamee/ Getty Images With a convincing win in North Carolina, a rejuvenated Barack Obama handily took the biggest remaining delegate prize in the contentious Democratic nomination fight on Tuesday night. And then things got interesting. With 92 percent of precincts reporting at press time, Hillary Clinton , who early in the night led Obama in Indiana by a wide, double-digit margin, saw her lead plummet to barely two percentage points shortly before midnight ET, as she clung to a 51 to 49 percent lead. Though Clinton had celebrated her Indiana victory hours before, CNN reported that officials in Lake County — a large county in the northern corner of the state on the Illinois border that was expected to go heavily in Obama's favor — held up the reporting of all of the county's vo...

Obama Wins North Carolina; Almost Indiana; Clinton Should Drop Out
2008-05-07 10:13:00 After weeks of being bombed with constant Rev. Wright stories and attempts to define Obama as a "Black candidate" we have the Indiana and North Carolina primaries, where Clinton was supposed to win by 10 percent -- she didn't -- and was to come close to Obama in North Carolina by coming within single digits -- she didn't do that either. Instead, Barack Obama won North Carolina by 14 points, and narrowly lost Indiana by less than 2 point, and vote counting is still not done. Senator Obama is now about 200 delegates or less from being the Democratic Presidential Nominee and there's nothing Senator Clinton can do to halt his march. Nothing. Clinton -- with a looming campaign debt -- is finished. MSNBC's Tim Russert gave the monologue that said it all, and it's here in this video:We do now know who the Democratic Presidential nominee will be and it's Senator Barack Obama.
Barack Obama DESTROYS Hillary Clinton In North Carolina; Expect Recount Dem
2008-05-07 10:00:00 Indiana Too Close To Call At Midnight Eastern Time — Hillary Diane Rodham Clinton, 51%; Barack “Barry-O-Bomber” Obama 49% Don’t get me wrong — SHOULD “Barry O-Bomber” lose Indiana’s primary, I wouldn’t expect any sort of a court challenge. On the OTHER hand, should the final tally show Obama wins by one or two points, I FULLY expect the insane, power-hungry “Clinton-Clinton” duo to turn their ruthlessness up to “ten“. These people aspire to return to the White House so badly, I (and many others, by the way), tend to question their REAL motives. Never before in my relatively short (compared to the “born on date” of our Democratic Republic) life have I seen liberals so split apart from one another as they are today. “Don’t worry, we’ll all be on the same team after this disgusting attack-fest is over”, we are assured by Democratic leaders.
