51 counts is a lot, right?

This is the first indictment connected to Easley that has been handed down. I don't think anyone is under the impression it will be the last.

Nixon had Chuck Colson, Easley has Ruffin Poole. "Go To" includes go to jail.

Another member of the Raleigh Mafia goes down.

Seems this paper endorsed Easley twice.
Hope he sings out, loud.
Nothing would be finer, than to live in Carolinia, with Easley in jail.
