Like Wow! indeed. Now I hope these people get out and campaign and just don't pout their signs up on lawns. I would like to know where they stand on the problems facing Greensboro.

From my personal Opinion I do not think Mr. Coffey is fit for District 1. Thats all I got to say on the matter I will not slander anyone because then that will just make me like ppl of his kind. All I have to say he has failed twice, I guess the brighter and intelligent people of North Carolina agreed with me. Smart decision if there ever was one made. I know this is never followed, but If one is to be in government or anything of that same category, one should have their personal matters in order. Seeing as Charles Dayton Coffey doesn't, that just plays into his failure of obtaining his seat. Need I say more?no. Just ask him yourselves...
