WataugaWatch: Good Lord, Guv!

Good Lord, Guv!

Spend one hour and 40 minutes with Governor McCrory, and he'll use one hour and 41 minutes of that time to whine, whine, WHINE about how the North Carolina press corps just doesn't appreciate his transcendent greatness.

Americans do not love whiners. McCrory is an Olympic whiner.

North Carolinians do not love whiners any more than the rest of America does.

Voters have a way of putting constant whiners out of their (and our) misery. Unfortunately, we have another three years of whining to listen to before this child with the big title gets sent to his room for good.
