....suspend elections, to help economy.

As a way to solve the national debt crisis, North Carolina Democratic Gov. Beverly Perdue recommends suspending congressional elections for the next couple of years.

"I think we ought to suspend, perhaps, elections for Congress for two years and just tell them we won't hold it against them, whatever decisions they make, to just let them help this country recover," Perdue said at a rotary club event in Cary, N.C., according to the Raleigh News & Observer. "I really hope that someone can agree with me on that."

Perdue said she thinks that temporarily halting elections would allow members of Congress to focus on the economy. "You have to have more ability from Congress, I think, to work together and to get over the partisan bickering and focus on fixing things," Perdue said.

North Carolina Republicans immediately scoffed at Perdue's proposal, pointing out to her that elections hold politicians accountable for their actions.

"Now is a time when politicians need to be held accountable more than ever," North Carolina GOP spokesman Rob Lockwood said in an email to The Daily Caller. "To suspend an election would be removing the surest mechanism that citizens have to hold politicians accountable: the right to vote."

UPDATE 5:17 p.m.:

Perdue press secretary Chris Mackey claims the governor was joking when she made the comment.

"Come on … Gov. Perdue was obviously using hyperbole to highlight what we can all agree is a serious problem: Washington politicians who focus on their own election instead of what's best for the people they serve," Mackey said in an email to TheDC.

I don't believe for a second that anyone is really that stupid-

I think this was a carefully scripted feeler put out there by the democrats to see how it would be recieved. it looks right now like there is no way obama is going to get a second chance if a fair election is held.so the solution is to not hold a fair election. it is practiced by dictators worldwide.

they are just seeing how the idea would float here at this time!


and where is the outrage?

where are the articles coming down on the unconstitutionality of this idea? :roll:

Exactly and anyone that even suggest this or thinks it is right should be booted from office immediately
