North Carolina First Party

They're apparently more serious than we thought:

Wearing matching "Bring Jobs to North Carolina" T-shirts, Donnell Smith of Fayetteville and Shelitia Brooks of Raeford told people they were trying to create better jobs and more affordable health care.

What they didn't say is they're also trying to throw 8th District Democratic Congressman Larry Kissell out of office.

But could they also be inadvertently helping to throw Tim D'Annunzio "in" office?

Some interesting news on the political front today: the announcement of a new party called North Carolina First. I talked with Greg Rideout about this earlier today, but it looks like Jim Morrill beat me to the breaking story.
