John Locke Foundation President John Hood‘s latest analysis for National Review Online’s primary blog, “The Corner,” has included thoughts about the Republican presidential contest and other important 2012 election news across the nation. Other “Corner” bloggers have cited Hood’s observations about the 2012 campaign. An article in The Nation criticizing North Carolina’s legislative redistricting plan quoted Hood. N.C. Senate Republicans have promoted in their daily press email Hood’s columns on Gov. Beverly Perdue, a controversial game fish bill, Terry Stoops’ international education comparison research, and the chance that Democrats will turn to Erskine Bowles as their next gubernatorial candidate. Watchdog.org also promoted the fishing bill column. The New Bern Sun Journal recently published a letter from one of Hood’s many “fans” across the state.
