Hawke hires on with McCrory

Charlotte Mayor Pat McCrory has hired Jack Hawke, a long-time Republican operative, as his chief strategist. Hawke used to run the Civitas Institute until a couple weeks ago. As well, he is a former Republican Party Chairman and has run for office himself. From the McCrory release:

"I'm hawkish on Hawke because of Jack's experience and winning record." said McCrory.

Hawke's first order of business: ensure the campaign no longer uses bad puns in their press releases.

Is that Hawke from the Spenser Novels??

No, but how cool would that be? "Vote for me or you'll be having a pretty rough conversation with my associate."
