Hampton is extremely bright and hard working. He'd be great at this job.

That's some broad-brush Joe McCarthy guilt by association. Anyway, observers recognize that he's sued the Easley administration more recently than he's worked in it. http://www.newsobserver.com/102/story/434023.html

If he has an Easley link he can't be trusted.

There's a difference b/t a campaign and the selection of a U.S. Attorney. I think we've had enough politics involved in the hiring/firing of U.S. Attorneys from the last administration...

In addition to picking her judicial recommendations, Sen. Hagen should have had Justice Mitchell write her letter to the White House as well. He, unlike her staff apparently, would have known that Federal District Court Judges are not “individuals for appointment to positions at the Department of Justice.”

Don't expect much "change" with the corrupt eastern democratic machine in North Carolina. It's really sick that if you are a powerful NC pol you can get your son appointed to a judgeship and then U.S. Attorney. The guy's son lost an actual election to Paul Ridgeway in Wake County so Easley appointed him TWICE to his current gig on the Superior Court.

Tony Rand's son for US Attorney???

You have got to be kidding me.

I thought we were trying to clean up corruption in Raleigh not perpetuate it. What a joke.

Hagan should be ashamed of herself. Not that the other two choices inspire confidence.

They are highly political partisans that ran for office just this past year. What terrible choices.

I consider it a good thing that I've never heard of any of the current US Attorneys - excepting Holding who I heard about because he was busy throwing crooked politicians of all parties into federal prisons.

I guess this is the end of any check on the corrupt ways of North Carolina Democrats.

Well, Gosh

You post on BlueNC.

This is DOME.

Re: UNITE HERE spent $12k in '08 races

Okay, let me preface this by saying, "I went to a county school", so on the off-chance I'm wrong you might feel pity for me, but...wouldn't that be $16,000?

Am I missing something? I mean, you don't even have trains traveling towards each other at different speeds, or Sally selling some apples at various prices and giving away others out of her basket.

Ryan, please stay after class.

So Unions own the Democrats. Who do Republicans get there money from?

I thought all Democrats were George Soros and George Soros was all Democrats? Make up your mind.

Poor little Hampton came up short and after all that money spent. Too bad Jesse still isn't around to block your daddy's confirmation again.
