NOTHING.... COLLECT A PAYCHECK AND LIE LIKE THE REST OF THE POLITICANS.

Agreed "lost in tanslation". The trend will most definetly continue if Coleman gets the job.

Nothing....as we couldn't tell from Bev and Walter?

I've read the article and it still doesn't really show the Lt Gov as being a big roll to fill. Save the taxpayers money and get rid of the position.

i dont think the state of NC has had a gov nor the last 12 yrs...............

The Lieutenant Governos's office doesn't sound like a good launching pad for future Governors. If the Lieutenant Governor really doesn't do that much work, that job only trains them to be a lazy Governor... ala Bev Perdue.

Track down overdue library books?

"What does the NC lieutenant governor actually do?"

So the correct answer is 'Nothing.... except wait for the governor to drop dead'.

What a waste of taxpayer money.

What does any politician do????

whatelseisnew, sounds like a good idea to me also. Eliminate that job and save the money. Heaven knows, there are other things in this state that the money could helo more than for any man or woman to do nithing!
