N.C. Spin's latest speculation


This week's edition of N.C. Spin has some more speculation on Cabinet appointments.

With the benefit of hindsight, we at Dome can say the bit about Rep. Bill Owens being up for secretary of Commerce under Gov.-elect Beverly Perdue is not true, but we can't fault them for that.

(Heck, we thought it too until this morning.)

The other name mentioned by the weekly online gossip column:

We have heard recently that Governor-elect Perdue plans to fulfill a promise to Charlotte leaders by opening a Charlotte Governor's office and that Crandall Bowles, wife of UNC President Erskine Bowles and former head of Springs Industries, might head up the Charlotte office.

Previously, N.C. Spin (and Dome) had said that Bowles might be up for a position as commerce secretary.
