Career politicians breed corruption and lies. Vote them out or they and their cronies die in office.

Option one....you win
Option two....you lose

Pay to play for sure. What's the deal here? There needs to be a federal investigation into this.

Good to see Pay-to-Play is alive and well

Change. The kind you can spend to get elected is what Perdue was looking for in new DOT members.

What happened to her promise to appoint people that know something about Transportation to the DOT board.

Let me mark my scorecard:

Campaign Promise: "I won't raise taxes"
Status: Broken

Campaign Promise: "Competent Professionals not pay-to-play donors on DOT board"
Status: Broken

It has been said that the last election and very much so the next election will be about jobs. But if you cannot trust the people you elect like Perdue, Hackney, Basnight, and State Auditor Wood you cannot expect anything to get done.

The Republicans here in North Carolina have the answers to job creation by the "PRIVATE" sector. The voters of North Carolina need to realize that reelecting the same Democratic leadership into the majority will lead to "MORE OF THE SAME". How high will our unemployment go under this leadership.
