Wheeler's trial balloon gives Democrats a target

When former Charlotte City Council member Lynn Wheeler told the Charlotte Business Journal she's considering a run for the U.S. Senate next year, she gave state Democrats a ripe target.

Wheeler, a Republican, told the Journal that people “are urging me to run, and I’ve told them I will think about it.” That got picked up by the News & Observer of Raleigh.

That was enough for Ben Ray, the state Democratic party's new Director of Rapid Response. His press release:
RALEIGH--Former Charlotte Mayor Pro Tempore Lynn Wheeler is considering running for Senate, reinforcing the weak and unsettled nature of the field of potential candidates against Senator Kay Hagan. Washington, D.C. Republicans have already seen two of their favored candidates, U. S. Representatives George Holding and Patrick McHenry, pass on the race.
Wheeler’s trial balloon makes an expensive and politically damaging primary campaign that much more likely. Each remaining potential candidate is deeply flawed, and will face substantial challenges to even emerge from a primary campaign...

Wheeler could not be reached.

Homo-in-chief phones and congratulates ex-NBA sodomite who is mpw permanently unemployed and unwanted. What a joke but typical of a sicko in the WH.

In 2003 Lynn lost the City Council At Large GOP Primary to an unknown. She came in last when she ran for City Council at Large in 2005. Lynn Got Hired Then Got Fired from WBTV. She hasn't been Mayor Pro Tem since 1999 ! So Wow ! Lynn Wheeler please run for US Senate on the GOP side. Please !

Heard in recent weeks that Lynn Wheeler was either Co-Chairing James Mitchell and/or Viola Lyles City Council Campaigns. So now she is running for Senate ? Why doesn't she just run for Mayor of Charlotte or excuse me, Queen of Charlotte !

Revisionist liar in chief Obama rewrites history derails and usurps the real 250 year history of Charlottetown.

The media should closely report and photograph any private vacation excursions by America's first homo president Obama to remote sandy tropical beaches with his new boy toy that involve no wives or kids.
Maybe the ex-NBA Collins freak will join them with his new found permanent free time.

Sane America can safely say at this time without going out on a limb that the first homosexual president Obama has accomplished his main agenda and pretty much trashed and fagged up Amerika and that will be his legacy other than his current 18 trillion dollar debt and counting est to reach 25-30 trillion by the time he is out in 2018 barring impeachment conviction and removal.
Due to his adding 11 million
(more like 40-50 million )
Chavez Castro democrackheads to complete his 3rd world banana republic transition to a socialist state with immigration reform his impeachment has a snowballs chance.

The 7:23 and 8:17 (same) poster must be a sad, lonely little man. Get out of the house dude and enjoy this great City on what will soon be a sunny day. Maybe even make some friends.

Why don't Tebow just wise up and fake being a faggot or muslim to recieve a congratulatory immediate call from Obama in todays screwed up pc age of Obamerica?

Clearly it it was a conspiracy that the 6' 5" 260 lb muscular 4.0 GPA UF Gator grad legit Heisman winner two time NCAA champion was railroaded by bigots and racists in the NFL NYC front office plus the extremely bigoted sports media for his outspoken beliefs and 1st Amendment Rights.

No doubt the White House played a role after just failing to strip 2nd Amendment rights since the 1789 US Constitution ratification.

I know I shouldn't feed the troll but what's with the poster on the rag over Obama/Tebow/homo/2nd Amend/Chavez/Castro? Just about everything except Lynn Wheeler. Wonder if he can read at all or is he just some sort of wind-up toy that whirls around spitting hate. Let's hope that the mental health check for gun posession passes this time. We need it and he is a demonstration why.

Lynn Wheeler is ancient history and an aged dinosaur. Unless you own property and pay taxes in Mecklenburg then get the hell out and back to your own little hick town media blogs. You are not welcome and have no business here.
