So the two supposedly anti-establishment candidates (Trump and Cruz) got a combined 72% of the vote. Yet the establishment incumbent got 62%.
That raises a question:
Did you vote for Donald Trump or Ted Cruz in #NorthCarolina? Did you vote for Senator Burr? If so, why did you vote for Burr? #NCSen

It's sickening to lose like this, we all know that. But the one thing that is more sickening is to be a candidate who pours years of your life into this fight only to have people reject you out of ignorance or apathy. I'm not in NC, but Greg is one of my favorite candidates. He and his family put so much on the line. I have known other less well known people who have done the same. And not just the candidates, but the volunteers. Its a pretty thankless job, and it gets mockery from the establishment and non voters alike.
So I just want to say thanks to all my friends in NC who did actually cast a vote for Brannon and other liberty candidates. It's an uphill battle with far too much defeat. We just have to use all the tools we have to try to make some difference. Sometimes a guy like Dave Brat wins.
I just want to be free.
Here's a message from Greg's wife.
I remember so well when the last campaign ended I felt thankful. Thankful that Greg Brannon is my husband and the best father to our children. I was satisfied that we ran the good race. I am still so very thankful for my husband. He laid it all on the line for our family & country.
But tonight I am angry.
I hope all those church leaders that were AFRAID to stand beside Greg -the only man in the race who has spent his entire career protecting unborn children are satisfied. Oh I know you are because it's all about power & money for the church in America. Yup I just said that. I am talking about the church-not Jesus.
Congrats North Carolina Right to Life - you got your man back who can do favors for you & then funds Planned Parenthood. You hypocrites.
And to the republican voters of NC, you senator didn't even stay in NC to hear the results of the race-he's back in DC already.
And you folks who love your guns-keeping sending your dues to the NRA so they can fund campaigns of those who question the 2nd amendment.
Politics is an ugly business.
I guess I should be thankful we made it out alive but not unchanged.
God is good, we live in a fallen world. Thankful this is just my temporary home.

You have the right to remain silent. Anything you post to the internet can and will be used to humiliate you.
He should try running in the state legislature...if he still wants to run for elected office.
It's the force of incumbency. McCain should have a tougher fight though. he's going for his sixth!
Rand caught lightning in a bottle, but he made sure to capitalize on the opportunity. We're really fortunate to have him in the Senate--that's why I don't understand why he gets so much grief from his own supporters.
But anyway, does the NC legislature have term limits? Brannon's federal campaigns could give him an edge in a state race...it's worked for a few people in Michigan.

For those who haven't heard yet, Greg is now running for the newly redistricted Congressional District 2. Against Congressman George Holding and Congresswoman Renee Ellmers. Brannon has lots of former patients and friends in this district. Should be interesting.
