Former Charlotte Mayor and GOP Gubernatorial Candidate Pat McCrory launched his much-awaited PAC today: the New Leadership PAC. According to Under the Dome, the PAC will focus on "creating private sector jobs, rooting out government waste and corruption, repairing the criminal justice system and investing in energy independence and transportation."
The PAC's launch confirms for most NC politicos McCrory's intentions for a 2012 gubernatorial rematch against Democrat Gov. Perdue. The Dome writes:

Have you decided whether you'll be attending the Post Party Summit in Charlotte next week? Or maybe you've seen my tweets about it, but still aren't sure what it is? I want to give you a little more information about the summit and hopefully show you why I'm so excited about this opportunity we have.
When the folks at American Majority, Smart Girl Politics, and RedState (among others) began discussing ways to move tea party activists past the tea parties and on to implementing real change, they came up with the Post Party Summits. The summits are a series of workshops geared toward giving activists the skills they need to realize successful conservative movements at the local level.
North Carolina is one of a handful of lucky states that get to host a Post Party Summit! To make it even better, RedState Editor Erick Erickson is the keynote speaker for Friday evening. At the Charlotte Post Party Summit, we'll get to learn about hardwiring precincts, using new media more effectively, running voter registration drives, and reaching fundraising goals.
Below is a blog article that American Majority President Ned Ryun wrote about last weekend's Post Party Summit in Pittsburgh. Take a look and then go register! Then tell your fellow tea partiers, 912ers, and concerned neighbors about it!
I don't need to tell y'all how important this election year is for our country, but also for our state. Protesting will not be enough: we have to change the leadership in Raleigh.
I hope you'll decide to join me in Charlotte next weekend!
Jessica

Looks like things are really heating up in the Lee vs. Goolsby race down in Wilmington. Last week the Lee campaign claimed Goolsby was deliberately misleading voters about their poll results. Today, the Lee campaign is reporting flyers being distributed to early voters list Lee as a Democrat. The full text of the Lee press release is below.
Must be something about Wilmington as the Congressional race between Breazeale and Pantano has also been in the news this week. First, Mayor Pat McCrory made headlines for endorsing both candidates, then this blog "Will Breazeale- In His Own Words" started making the Twitter rounds today.
