Hilarious that a state house of representatives has an even number of members, even more hilarious is that there are 60 Democrats and 60 Republicans, and no end in sight.

Unless a member of either party betrays his side there may never be a speaker in NC.

Until late last week the GOP had a 61-59 majority in the House. Then Mike Decker jumped ship and joined the RATS making it 60-60.

Ah yes, another 'RAT elected for life to run some state with an iron fist. Someone explain to me again why "conservatives" want to take power AWAY from the people and give it to a bunch of liberal government buerucrats running state legislatures? I can just picture who this guy would "appoint" to the U.S. Senate. Southern 'RATs would just LOVE to have MORE power in their rigged-district legislatures so they overturn what the citizens want.

So where's the Lt. Governor to break the tie-vote? That's basically their ONLY job Lt. Governors do unless the Governor croaks. As I recall the Lt. Gov. is a 'RAT too. If she can't take control here, what CAN she do?

Man, that RINO traitor has really screwed up the state of N.C. He and the adminstration of Duke University need to be thrown out of office A.S.A.P.

The NC House may find that it can do without a speaker. The position may be superfluous in the midst of such 50-50 divisions betwenn Carolina liberals and conservatives. Maybe the legislature will simply have to adjourn and conduct no business at all. That could in itself save NC people money!

Most do. I've often pondered this eventuality.
