By every available metric, Republican Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson was already losing North Carolina’s gubernatorial race. The question was less about whether he’d fail and more about the margin of his upcoming defeat. But the latest revelations about the extremist candidate have generated an entirely different set of questions — such as whether Robinson’s campaign will be able to continue.
