but Kissell will have to really have a great deal of financial backing because Hayes is backed by all the Cannon money. That is all he has (the money), but it has bought him the position so far.

Hayes has no clue about the needs of the people in his district. In the city of Kannapolis where his grandfather founded Cannon Mills, 4500 textile workers lost their jobs and Hayes had the unmitigated gall to vote for CAFTA after he repeatedly vowed he would not. I was the librarian at a school two blocks from the mill and I saw what the loss of jobs did to families and especially the children. It was tragic. Nearly 70% of the children at our school were on free lunch.

Hayes is nothing more than a puppet for the Bush administration. He must be defeated!
