Neal Accuses Hagan of Intimidation
RALEIGH — Kay Hagan’s chief rival in the Democratic primary for U.S. Senate has accused the state senator of using her status as a powerful and politically connected committee chairwoman to intimidate his potential supporters.
“There is an inside machine that is working very hard to lock down the money in the state,” said Jim Neal, a Chapel Hill investment banker and Greensboro native. On the stump and in phone calls to potential donors, Neal has told audiences that potential supporters were being “muscled” by political operatives friendly to Hagan.
You mean a politician is using her political connections to actually try and get elected? Get out! Don’t be such a wimp, Neal. If you can’t handle the election game how do you expect to tackle the U.S. Senate?
