God Tells Another Republican To Run for U.S. Senate (Because God Has a Sense of Humor?)

Ted Alexander, former mayor of Shelby and currently chair of the Cleveland County Republican Party, apparently got The Call from God and is announcing today that he's entering the already crowded Republican primary for the U.S. Senate seat currently help by Kay Hagan.

“It’s an inner tugging that you feel God’s compelled you to do it,” Alexander told the Shelby Star. “I just had to be obedient to go ahead and do that. It’s something internal that I knew I had to do it now. I think our country is now in a very critical stage in its life. There are things I’ve learned over the years that I think could help our state, as well as our country, during this time.”

And here we were, thinking that Rev. Mark Harris had the franchise on God in that particular race!
