Perdue Pledges Not to Ignore Charlotte
In her first public appearance as governor-elect, Bev Perdue on Thursday pledged to invest in Charlotte’s roads, turn around the state’s economy and bridge gaps between cities and political persuasions.
“The future we have is not about Democrats, it’s not about Republicans,” she told the crowd at the Charlotte Chamber’s annual meeting at the Time Warner Cable Arena. “We are all North Carolinians, and we’re all in this thing … together.”
Yeah, sure you will, Bev. Raleigh has ignored Metrolina for years. You ran ads attacking McCrory for showing support for the City of Charlotte. Why should anyone believe what you say? Time will tell how well you fulfill your “promise”, but I’m not holding my breath. The wrong person won that election.
Ha ha! I needed a good laugh today. I’m not sure if Bev Perdue even knows where Charlotte is, much less whether she’ll take care of it or not.
Yeah, Perdue obviously thinks there are a lot of stupid people in Charlotte, but then again, she just got elected governor so maybe she is right.
