You are absolutely correct. As long as voters go blindly into the polls and vote strictly down party lines North Carolina will be the puppet of Democrats. During Easley's term, he took action on very little. The Southport Marina, water conservation, and a veto over large sport fishing boats is all i recall. The latter is ridiculous, the sport fishermen go to tournaments all along the east coast. They bring in millions of dollars in revenue. If you examine accidents involving boats, they do not exceed the average for other motor vehicles. And Perdue is not truthful about drilling for oil. She is against it, however during the election cycle, when its convenient, she coyly will let oil companies drill on leases they currently hold. Some of her biggest contributors are in the DOT, which by coincidence have raided the highway trust fund. If you truly want change, change her address. Ship her out of Raleigh.
