Amazing: What a headline for a story…… Need I say more?
It appears from a story in "bluenc" by Betsy Muse on Thu, 01/15/2015 that our most excellent Democratic party here in North Carolina is just that: Broke and in debt. I've taken the liberty of attaching the link to the story as there really isn't much to say outside of seeing and reading the actual North Carolina State Board Of Election's "Political Committee Disclosure Report".... But it gets "better":
The election of a new chair to lead the North Carolina Democratic Party is right around the corner and the State Executive Committee still has not been informed where their meeting will be held on February 7. It is assumed that the meeting was changed from Daniels Middle School in Raleigh to TBD because the school did not have enough parking to accommodate a meeting of this size. The Facebook event has not been updated and people continue to ask on the event page where the meeting is going to be held so that plans can be made.
Conspiracy theories are starting to fly ranging from it being a delay tactic to it being a way to prevent mountain voters from making it to the meeting, but a far more likely reason that the SEC meeting has not yet found a home is that the party is flat broke and finding a location to house an expected 600+ attendees at this late date is not going to be cheap.
Financial reports were posted today and the party shows under $6000 cash on hand with $129,000 debt. Nice. Very nice.

Any wonder why the Democrats got their collective "tuchas" handed to them this past November in North Carolina? Brings to mind that famous (well, at least in my lifetime) now defunct National Airlines television commercial back in 1963 in which the stewardess asks: "Is this any way to run an airline ...?"
Is this any way to run a major political state party….. I ask?
Be safe out there.
Forward Together, Not One Step Back!
