Mark Robinson, the Republican former Lieutenant Governor of North Carolina whose campaign for governor of the Tar Heel State two years ago was sunk by resurfaced posts on a porn site’s message board, filed for bankruptcy earlier this month — with he and his wife claiming they had fewer than $800 to their name.

Robinson, 58, and his spouse Yolanda Hill are seeking protection under Chapter 13 of the federal bankruptcy code, which allows wage earners to settle their debts over a period of several years while keeping hold of their personal property.
