McCrory takes tropical break

What does a candidate for governor do between meetings and campaign appearances?

If you’re Charlotte Mayor Pat McCrory, see a movie. (McCrory is a Republican running against Democrat Bev Perdue.)

McCrory met with the News & Record’s editorial board on Monday and before things got rolling allowed as how he had taken a break on a trip through the city Sunday. He and a campaign worker stopped to see Topic Thunder.

“It was wild. It was wild. We had a two hour break between meetings and instead of sitting around making phone calls, I said, ‘You know what? Let’s get our mind off it and go see a good comedy,” McCrory said.

I haven’t been out to the movies much lately, so I’ll leave it to you as whether the Ben Stiller film qualifies as a “good comedy.”
