Tata is the states gain and Wake County's loss.

Democrats, especially those on the Wake County School board, are such idiiots.

Tata is a prime example of the "Peter Principle."

"So, you think Gen Tata will discrimminate against Wake County as Sec of Transpo? Is it really a good idea to have someone like that in a position of authority?" Mr.Middle of the Road

Exactly what did the Army trust you to do?

Why do you hate Art Pope? Because he has been successful? Because he is not a liberal?

He's never been accused of any crime that has created indictment like many "Democrat" officials. He and his family have contributed to numerous charitable organizations that have benefitted North Carolinians.

Exactly WHY do you hate Art Pope?

"Could you back up your dislike of Conti or give an example Nancy? It sounds like you hold a grudge about something or is it just because he was part of Perdue's administration?" - floweasy

Conti was less "qualified" (the point so many people are trying to place against Tata) than Tata if you go by education and experience.

The grudge I hold is how poorly DOT has been operated for a long time and the waste of monies as well. Heck, even the local news pointed out their failings over the years.

General Tata wont last 2 years this time either. You cant command people unless you are in the military. You never get cooperation from your staff by being a dictator. Never read a single comment from anyone he directly supervised who said they worked for the school and was sorry to see him leave.

Disappointing about the Pope appointment. That is clearly getting off on the wrong foot.

Let the DOT spring cleaning begin!

"I've also asked him to fix DMV — in a week," McCrory said with a smile.

Afraid it may take a month, Governor. It's a real mess.

Glad to see McCrory appoint Tata. He did a good job with the Wake School system, but the politically charged misfits fired him to flex their muscle. He will no doubt do an excellent job with the state and I wish him luck.

The Wake Co School Board fired him.....guess KARMA is coming to pay them a visit! BVFD1602

So, you think Gen Tata will discrimminate against Wake County as Sec of Transpo? Is it really a good idea to have someone like that in a position of authority?
