This is just an odd one. . .
(StarNews) State Sen. Bill Rabon of Southport said Tuesday he is not publicly endorsing fellow Republican and congressional candidate David Rouzer in his hotly contested race against U.S. Rep. Mike McIntyre.
Huh? But wait, there’s more. . .
“I would think that we should wash both of their mouths out with soap and tell them to start running a fresh, clean campaign – not talking about each other but talking about the issues and their plans,” Rabon said Tuesday.
That’s interesting considering he already endorsed him and this was posted yesterday at the StarNews.
The Rouzer campaign also said Rouzer is endorsed by state senators representing the district, including Sens. Thom Goolsby of New Hanover County; Bill Rabon of Brunswick, . . .
If this holds up, it was poorly timed and will have a serious detrimental effect on Rouzer. But Rabon’s withdrawal is even more confusing when you look at a follow up quote.
But Rabon said Tuesday that though he endorsed Rouzer in the GOP primary against Ilario Pantano, he wasn’t endorsing him against the Democrat McIntyre in the General Election.
Huh? So he endorses Rouzer against another Republican (who won Rabon’s home county in the primary) but won’t endorse the Republican in the general election????? Very much the head scratcher here. Who the heck is advising Rabon?
