This is what Wikipedia has to say about Paul Stam..

Paul Stam - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia_1316708050102Paul B. "Skip" Stam, Jr. (born September 5, 1950 in Princeton, NJ) is a Republican member of the North Carolina General Assembly representing the state's 37th House district, including constituents in Wake County. An attorney from Apex, North Carolina, Stam was elected to his sixth (non-consecutive) term in the state House of Representatives in 2010. He was first elected in 1988, but was defeated for re-election in 1990. He ran unsuccessfully for the state Senate and for the North Carolina Court of Appeals (in 1998 and 2000) before being elected to the House again in 2002.[1]

Stam won re-election from the 37th House district in the 2004 General Assembly election, defeating Libertarian H. Wade Minter in the November general election. In 2006, Stam was unsuccessfully challenged by Ed Ridpath (vote count: Stam 15,459 votes, Ridpath 11,628).

In December 2006, Stam and Rep. Fred Steen ran for House Republican Leader after Joe L. Kiser stepped down from the position.[2] Stam was elected by his fellow House Republicans to the post. After Republicans won a majority in the state House in the 2010 elections, Stam lost a vote to become the party's nominee for Speaker of the House to representative Tom Tillis, but was elected Majority Leader instead.[3]

Lets hope we can vote this bully/bigot back out of office..
