Lt. Gov. Dan Forest led the potential Republican field of candidates who may take on Democratic U.S. Sen. Kay Hagan next year, according to Democratic-leaning Public Policy Polling. It was the first time Forest's name had been included in the survey.
The poll put him at 18 percent, U.S. Rep. Virginia Foxx at 13% percent, Labor commissioner Cherie Berry at 12 percent and U.S. Renee Ellmers at 10 percent. Senate President Phil Berger was at 8 percent and House Speaker Thom Tillis at 2 percent.
But don't expect Forest to run. "Never contemplated it, never considered it," said the newly elected lieutenant governor. "I like being lieutenant governor That's not your typical political response is it?" Forest, the son of former U.S. Rep. Sue Myrick, said the poll reflects residual name recognition after last year's statewide campaign. Along with Berry, he was one of only two of the potential GOP candidates with over 50 percent name recognition. .

This guy's a freak and a nut but he's a damn sight better than that silly and ignorant broad the Democrats threw up against him for the job. Lord have mercy what has happened to The Old North State?! Any more of this nonsense and we'll be as bad off as those sand rakers in South Carolina.
