The New North Carolina Democratic Activists

Interesting long article in this a.m.'s N&O about the new Democratic Party activists at work in North Carolina. The character profiled in Wake County -- Jesse Goslen -- multiply him by 100, and you'll begin to approach what's happening in virtually every county in this state. They're sick and tired, and they're not going to take it any more!

The article reopens the old wounds, natch! between The Guv and the take-over of the party by progressives earlier this year: "But the transition has not always been smooth. Democratic Gov. Mike Easley has practically divorced himself from his own party organization." Practically? Did you say practically?

But we're glad to see new State Party Chair Jerry Meek getting good marks. No thanks to The Guv.
