| Description | Lt. Gov. Beverly Perdue is sparing the pleasantries when talking about Gov. Mike Easley.
Perdue, a fellow Democrat and her party's nominee to succeed Easley, has subtly been dissing Easley in her speeches for weeks.
"I'm going to be such a different governor than we've seen," she told a Concord crowd in August. "I'm going to be hands-on. I'm going to be active and engaged."
OK, not so subtly, given that she's underscoring Easley's tendency to rarely leave the Executive Mansion. Last week, in a meeting with the News & Observer editorial board, Perdue was asked: Has Easley been a good governor?
"Wow! Why don't you go for the jugular?" she responded. "I'm not in the business of judging governors."
