Commentary
This should be an interesting election cycle in Buncombe County. It is my hope that my fellow Republicans will perform better than they have in the past, and it is my fond hope that some of them will form a serious campaign effort complete with staff and a strategic plan that shows some sense. Time will tell.
I wonder about the listing of RL Clark and Don Yelton facing off against each other in the Republican primary. My first thought was that it was a mistake...but one never knows.
