ellis that was a peer of jesse
helms in north carolina and in
my opinion, tom ellis almost
single-handedly elected three of
the best senators in the 20th
century.
john east in 1980 and laurence
faircloth and tom is still in
active lawyer in north carolina.
they were told ronald reagan and
the team in 1976 -- by the way
before he got to north carolina
he lost four or five primaries.
he lost the florida primary, the
north primary and things were
looking really, really dark.
so, he wants to come into north
carolina and tom ellis said we
don't want you here.
we will handle the campaign.
we will take care of it.
however if you insist on coming
and we have to do four things
come and he said tom ellis told
him he is for things.
you must attack forward,
