Bowles Ashamed of Being a Democrat?

Another non-debate joint appearance of Erskine Bowles and Richard Burr, this time in front of the N.C. Bankers Association. The write-up in the Raleigh News & Observer contains this paragraph:

"Bowles, a Charlotte investment banker and former White House chief of staff for President Clinton, barely even mentions he is a Democrat."

Just what we're looking for in a candidate!
