There's little or no hope for Durham. It is so corrupt I can't imagine what could eliminate the corruption.
In the last City Council and mayor's race, 8 out of 16 of the candidates had criminal records. It sounds worse than New Orleans. And the Chief of Police of Durham, has anybody seen him? Seriously. Has anybody seen him? Has he made even one statement? Does he exist?
Re: comments about Duke's lack of loyalty to the team. IMHO, President Richard Brodhead was just waiting for an excuse to stick it to the lacrosse team. He sure lacks any leadership qualities, not to mention a severe lack of the sense of fair play and basic logic and failure to keep ones commitments. How could one blame a sport for the POSSIBLE actions of 3 players? This had nothing to do with appeasing Durham but instead a revelation into the malfunctioning minds of Brodhead and his supporters.
