RALEIGH, N.C.
Vernon Robinson, a conservative Republican who has never held any office higher than city councilman, continues to rank among the nation's most successful congressional fundraisers after raking in more than $520,000 in the past 21/2 months.
Robinson's success, on par with that of some of the top members of Congress, relies on a mix of attack politics and modern communication. In one radio ad, for example, Robinson tells listeners that if his opponent had his way, "America would be nothing but one big fiesta for illegal aliens and homosexuals."
"There are a lot of folks waiting for someone to take a stand on the issues," Robinson said. "I'm willing to do just that."
