5/5/14, "Rand Paul rallies for Greg Brannon in North Carolina," Politico, Tarini Parti, Charlotte, N.C.
"Sen. Rand Paul has been trying to make nice with
the GOP establishment for most of the year. But on the eve of a crucial
GOP primary here, he fired up a crowd in support of libertarian favorite
Greg Brannon, whom he hailed as “the dragon slayer” America needs to
destroy the “Leviathan.”
“The status quo has gotten too strong in
Washington, D.C. The Leviathan has gotten too large. … As we stand here,
the debt clock is spiraling out of control. Send us a champion. Send us
a hero. Send us a dragon slayer,” Paul said, speaking prior to Brannon
in front of a cheering crowd of about 250 outside the NASCAR Hall of
Fame in Uptown Charlotte on Monday....
If Brannon can keep Tillis under 40 percent, it would force a July 15
runoff. A third candidate with backing from Christian evangelicals,
Mark Harris, is also in the mix.
“I say if you like your doctor, send him to the Senate,” Paul said, a
spin on the now-infamous line from President Barack Obama on the new
health care law: “If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor.”...

the deal and keep the primary from heading into a two-month-long runoff
battle that could hurt the party’s chances of defeating Hagan.
The poll shows Tillis right at 40 percent, Brannon at 28 percent and Charlotte pastor Harris at 15 percent."...
