News Politico: Perdue changes name, wants another run as governor

Posted by Thomas Wheatley @thomaswheatley on Thu, Apr 30, 2009 at 2:12 PM

Politico today rehashes an Insider Advantage article that reports U.S. Rep. Nathan Deal, R-Ga., plans to run for governor. The news site — famous for WINNING THE AFTERNOON! — included a picture of this "Nathan Deal" character, whom looks eerily similar to...holy shit.

Gov. Sonny Perdue, you must respect the state Constitution and bow out at the end of your term, sir! The citizens of Georgia will not sit idly by as you try to hoodwink us into another eight years!

Thanks to Jason Pye, this egregious powergrab was caught before it gained momentum.

Whoa, Thomas. Thanks for catching this. Or ... wait a second ... could it be that it was Nathan Deal who had the face change?
