Yep. That's what I'm hearing. NC's excuse for a governor, Beverly Purdue, has decided NOT to seek re-election!!!!! This comes amid a growing flood of anti-Perdue feelings. No doubt, the democratic party has convinced her that she stands a zero chance of being re-elected. Now, the party must come up with a viable candidate to offset republican Pat McCrory's strengths. Most realists have been pretty open in the fact that McCrory, a former Charlotte mayor, would walk all over Perdue in November. A virtual shoe-in, they say.
I'm not too sure that the democrats can find a candidate that can beat McCrory. Folks around these parts have become pretty sick and tired of putting up with a less than mediocre governor.
So, who can they dig up? Hey, Jim Hunt could make another run. Just kidding. I would look at Roy Cooper, the state's attorney general. I'm just not too sure he can muster enough votes, either.
WARNING! WARNING! WARNING!
The legislature needs to quickly adopt legislation that will prohibit Perdue from pardoning ANYONE in prison. Given the idiotic action by another lame duck governor, a man who turned loose all sorts of inmates, including killers, it would not surprise me to see her do something just as stupid. After all, what does she have to lose?
