A Failure to Communicate
2009-11-03 - by
Mark Johnson noted in Under the Dome that – counting her 2000 campaign – Bev Perdue had five communications directors as lieutenant governor.
Now David Kochman is leaving that job in the governor’s office.
The problem isn’t the staff.
It’s that – after a dozen years in the legislature, eight years as lieutenant governor, a campaign for governor and 10 months in office – no one knows what Perdue stands for.
Even Mike Easley had the lottery, More At Four and Learn And Earn.
Perdue doesn’t have a single rhyme.
Maybe Pearse Edwards, her new senior advisor for communications and policy, can fix this mess.
If she has another staff shakeup instead, she could become the first one-term governor since succession passed in 1977.
