David ParkerDavid Parker is also considering a run.

The Statesville attorney and former Barack Obama superdelegate said that he may run for chairman of the N.C. Democratic Party.

"I haven't made a decision," he told Dome.

He said he'll decide based on what Gov.-elect Beverly Perdue and other top party officials think.

"I think the governor's opinion and the opinions of the Executive Committee are very important," he said.

Democratic vice chair Dannie Montgomery is already running for the post, while Raleigh fundraiser Richard Sullivan is considering a run.

Current chairman Jerry Meek steps down at the end of January.

So now Mr. Meek will 'cross over' to the private sector loiwyering ... good for him, but after having swept total control in NC, why now?

I still wonder what Dannie Montgomery's qualification would be? She must be being coached by Rep activist Pryor Gibson, D-Anson/Union (even if he doesnt live there)...
