Tweet about our tweetie! @DerekKiszely: This evening I had the honor of meeting @clayaiken - he's the type of candidate voters flock to: authentic, charismatic, and relatable.

Cute tweet! @BrindaStar: What's better than a candidate who also happens to sing? One who listens! Thanks @ClayForNC you have a new fan! http://t.co/vl4ct8k4JM

I heard a rumour there is an event in Chicago!

From Team Clay.

I'm back! There was a power surge and at least six modems in the neighbourhood got zapped! I didn't realise how much I missed that stuff! I see Clay collected some money, spent some money, loaned himself some money and saved some. Does that about cover it?

Good thoughts couchie! Last night our system got zapped so I had no phone, internet or TV! I had to use my cell phone to talk to att. I get really bad to nil service in my house with my cell phone so that was fun! We had a bad storm and it appear s the box got zapped! At least they will be out to fix it today. Of course my DH is not too well so he really isn't happy about them coming out. Oh well. As I always say it is what it is! Sometimes having to work is a good thing!

Oh no!

An email from Gene Conti Friends, We are excited to announce that the Cook Political Report just moved the NC 2nd Congressional District out of the “solid Republican” column. That’s because of Clay — and you. This is big news for our campaign. The Cook Political Report is a premier authority on congressional races. The New York Times called the Report "a newsletter that both parties regard as authoritative." When they move a district from one column to another, it's because they see significant changes in the dynamics of a race. It's clear Clay has changed the dynamic here in our district. Yes, the Report acknowledged, the district has been “heavily gerrymandered” to help the incumbent. But it added: “In an hour-long interview in our offices, Aiken was not only polished and poised, but relaxed, free-wheeling, persuasive, and politically realistic. He spoke passionately and fluently on a range of issues, from trade promotion authority to No Child Left Behind to continuous coverage provisions of the Affordable Care Act's individual mandate." The article's author credited Clay for his "policy depth." And he said, "those tempted to label Democrat and 2003 American Idol runner-up Clay Aiken a clueless celebrity wandering blindly onto the political scene should think again." The experts are taking notice in Clay and our campaign. Will you give $10, $25, $50, or whatever amount you can afford today to help us carry our momentum forward? This campaign is going to continue to surprise the political establishment. Clay isn't your typical candidate. He's a true advocate for the people of the 2nd District, and he's tough enough to take on Washington. With your help, we can win this election.

Tweet @ClayForNC: The Cook Political Report has shifted #nc02 away from solid Republican because of @clayaiken and you!

@ClayForNC: Clay had a packed house visit with him at fundraiser last night. Couldn’t make it? Chip in https://t.co/4jPPs4w0KJ http://t.co/s2Kpx6aixz

Couchie, you are just like me! Being a fan, for want of another word, is really difficult. I follow the tweets because he is fun to look at and I will continue to bring them but it's only so long as I can ignore the political stuff! Ha ha! I feel that he is where he wants to be. Someone once said that they had not left the Republican Party but the party had left them. That's kind of how I feel. I have not left him but he has left me. I sincerely wish him well but I also wish that he had not followed this path. Note I did not say choose because I honestly think this is in his heart so there was no choosing. If he wins I will cheer for him and continue to follow his career from a distance but with a heavy heart. He will be going where I cannot follow.

He really does look statesmanly (it is so a word........if only in my mind) in the pic of him and Aron.

@cdesouza39: ,@clayaiken (2/2) The entire Clayton clan family wishes you the best of luck in your Congressional race.

Love this. @Redistrict: Just interviewed @clayaiken #nc02 for an hr at @CookPolitical. Actually, he showed more policy depth than 4/5 of state legislators I've met.

Hee, they were giving away a trip to Colorado at the tournament and my daughter just called to say she won! Five days, four nights, flight to beaver Creek and two rounds of golf. For two people! She is so excited except she doesn't play golf
