Join us as we protest Outsource Mitt this Sunday In three NC towns:

Mitt Romney claims to be a job creator and good steward of our economy - but he's been outsourcing jobs to China and offshoring his money to Switzerland. Join Progress NC Action, Move-on, the AFL-CIO and many other organizations as we greet Mitt’s campaign bus in Mooresville, High Point and Morrisville this coming Sunday with a sea of protestors waving Swiss and Chinese flags and holding signs that make it plain Outsource Mitt is not for NC! We have the permits, signs and flags... you just have to show up. Details on each event after the jump.

I am curious as to why the

I am curious as to why the Republican Party of South Carolina is actively injecting itself into the November election in North Carolina. They are actively recruiting or asking for volunteers all over the Palmetto State to lend a hand in the Great North State. Is the Republican Party of North Carolina that needy....how is it that the Republican Party of North Carolina thinks that emulating South Carolina will somehow be a plus to the more progressive and successful North State. Sure Boeing and BMW have taken up in South Carolina..but it cost the treasury and the citizens of that State far more than they will re-coup in several generations. By all means lets have Wake County Schools pattern themselves after Charleston, Berkley, and Horry Counties. I lived in Charleston for 5 years. I can assure you that THE GREAT NORTH STATE has absolutely nothing to envy in its sister Carolina to the South. Unless of course if you want to see African American workers in your local Harris Teeter brazenly and loudly called and referred to as "boy" or "girl"...then follow suit...if you want to have an income disparity on par with Guatemala or Honduras...then by all means lets take the Palmetto State as our blue print...oh come on...lets go all in...Lets invite Haley Barbour up from Mississippi and put his ample backside in the Governors Mansion..who needs McCrory when we can have Haley and the South Carolina and Mississippi legislature as our road map. What the GOP of North Carolina needs to remember that my father shared with me long ago.....ahhh North Carolina that peaceful, producive and prosperous valley between to great hills one of stupidity and one of arrogance...South Carolina and Virginia.

Why did Romney cancel!

Sorry I couldn't make it over to High Point today. Could it be that the Romney campaign feared a protest in the Triangle might have caused a problem just when they were rolling out Paul Ryan! So, to avoid negative publicity, they cancelled the Morrisville appearance but went ahead with the more conservative locations of High Point and Mooresville.
