Arts and crafts in the gubernatorial campaign

Boys and girls, the politicians are getting all creative in the run-up to Christmas. We take you now to the Democratic primary for governor, where Bev Perdue and Richard Moore are battling it out.

First there was this YouTube video from Perdue, claiming Moore was responsible for the Randy Parton mess.

Then Moore campaign comes back with a little poem:

When on my computer there arose such a clatter,

I sprang from my desk to see what was the matter.

Away to Youtube to watch a video in Flash,

An attack ad at Christmas seemed awfully rash.

Baseless vitriol filling the monitor's glow

Gave the lustre of Jesse Helms to objects below

When, what to my wondering eyes should appear,

But a Perdue contributor, and eight tiny reindeer,

With a stupid old letter, so grouchy and quick,

I knew in a moment it must be a trick.

Full poem here.

Actual response here.
