This week, the State Employees Association of North Carolina endorsed Patrick Ballentine for governor, the first time ever the organization has endorsed a Republican candidate. This is obviously a major boost to Ballentine and a major slap in the face to Mike Easley, our state’s invisible governor. I wonder if Easley is now wishing he had shown his face at all those public functions he skipped.
Wonder how Ballentine will govern? At least he might show up.
