    "A source in the Republican [National] Committee has reported that... that the Committee has no interest in donating any funds to Mr. Helms' re-election campaign in his state of North Carolina--and it seems that a number of Republicans in the Tar Heel State have turned against the Senator."

    -Tom Brokaw (1983)

    "The results in North Carolina have been confirmed--Governor James Hunt has defeated Senator Jesse Helms for the latter's seat..."

    Listen boy, I don't want to see you let a good thing slip away

    You know I don't like watching anybody make the same mistakes that've been made

    Dellums' a real nice guy

    And he'll always be there for you

    But a nice guy shouldn't let Communism rule

    Listen boy I'm sure you think you got it all under control

    You don't want anybody telling you

    The way to go

    You're a big boy now

    You'll never let your vote go

    But that's just the kind of thing you ought to show

    Tell them about it

    Vote for Buckley

    Give him every reeason

    To show you that he's for real

    Tell them about it

    Vote for Buckley

    Let him show he needs you

    And how much you mean

    "I didn't think it was necessary--having to be re trained all of a sudden. They told us that we were going to fight the war on their terms. I asked why, they told me because it was their war--something like that. We needed to only backup the infantry, rather than launch strikes on our own. Essentially we needed to cover them and not much else.

    "At first we ended up routing them--all the way across the Hindu Kush range. The television stations couldn't stop covering it. The Ministry was vindicated, Demichev had his victory and planned to stay where he was."

    -Alexander Rutskoy (2009)
