North Carolina Democrat Larry Kissell represents the state’s 8th Congressional district, one of the more closely-watched swing districts. He was one of 17 Democrats who voted to hold Attorney General Eric Holder in criminal contempt of Congress. And now, according to the Charlotte Observer, Kissell will join Republicans in voting to repeal Obamacare.
“I’ve heard from hundreds and hundreds of people from my
district about their opposition to the health care law,” Kissell told
the newpaper. “I voted against it originally and I will vote to repeal
it.”
According to the Observer, Kissell “also said he
doesn’t plan to endorse Obama for re-election and isn’t sure he’ll
attend his party’s national convention in Charlotte.”
Kissell will have to work very hard to miss the convention
that is almost literally being held in his backyard. As RNC Deputy
Communications Director Tim Miller tweeted, Kissell’s district ends about a mile away from where the Democratic National Convention will be held.
This is yet another sign of how unpopular Obamacare is and
how much trouble Obama is in in the Tar Heel State, which he won in
2008. Read more: http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2012/07/03/North-Carolina-Democrat-Will-Vote-To-Repeal-Obamacare-Will-Not-Endorse-Obama
