It wasn't so much a shocker. It was disappointing that any state would elect someone with such huge ties to any business, having worked 28 years for Duke Energy, and then trying to help negotiate the penalty for polluting. These people will do anything to run our country. I'm tired of it and hope that we can all wake up to the fact that our politicians are corrupt and need to be replaced soon.
