Interim agriculture commissioner Britt Cobb, defeated by Republican Steve Troxler in the November election as it has become obvious, will nevertheless fight on to give North Carolina voters another chance to, I guess, get it right:
Cobb said Monday that he will stay put until the courts, Board of Elections or the Democrat-controlled General Assembly decideds the outcome. Cobb says Governor Mike Easley supports his decision.
“I’m prepared to stay in the office as long as it takes,” Cobb said. “Hopefully for four years.”
I hope someone clips his fingernails before Cobb gets dragged out of the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, as otherwise I fear that public property ? furniture, walls, doors, etc. ? may be damaged.
