McCrory is another possible presidential candidate that Rand doesn't have to worry about.
I am hearing from quite a few folks who heard from Pat McCrory on their home telephones Sunday evening. The governor was telling them how important it was to vote for state House speaker Thom Tillis in Tuesday’s GOP primary. Yes, that’s right. The – for all intents and purposes — HEAD of the North Carolina Republican Party is butting in on a hotly-contested Republican primary race.
We’ve all been subjected to lectures from Raleigh about the importance of GOP leaders staying OUT of party primary races. Yet, Thom Tillis is on record as having meddled in a number of legislative primaries in Eastern North Carolina.

Former GOP presidential candidate Mike Huckabee reached what the Harris campaign said were hundreds of thousands of voters with automated phone calls. Gov. Pat McCrory and former U.S. House Speaker Newt Gingrich recorded calls for Tillis.

McCrory vetoed Tillis' immigration bill in 2013.
This is no different from Jan Brewer fundraising for McCain and supporting his amnesty bill at the federal level.
