Bev Perdue disappointed with North Carolina: "we look like Mississippii"

Apparently, Governor Perdue's comment struck a chord with Mississippii's Governor Bryant. After North Carolina residents decided the definition of marriage should not be changed, during Tuesday's primaries, Perdue has been letting her displeasure be heard.

She is very disappointed in her state. A state in which she has not helped much at all while Governor. A state that has continued to see job loses and tax increases for her and her group of special interests. A state where she promised better education opportunities and employment, yet, more teachers and assistants have lost jobs. She knows how to appeal to special interests, and often uses education as an instrument to gain sympathy and support (as do many politicians). In this case, she is using the recent vote, and is continuing to sulk in the National spotlight by making it clear, North Carolina isn't some southern state like Mississippii.

Gov. Bryant has made his disappointment clear, and hopes for an apology. Perdue's criticism of her states voters and comparing the state to Mississippii is a low blow. The voters decided based on what they conciously believed was the right way to vote, and just because the state voted as they did does not make them the same as Mississippii. Besides, it could have a positive effect for the state, but the most positive will be when she is out of the governor position. One she should have never been it to start with.
