Ken Birdsong
Gov Perdue has appointed Rep. Ken Birdsong (D - Gordon) to a state veterans affairs board. This leaves an open tossup seat in middle Georgia, outside of Macon. Clever move by the governor. Why entice these guys to switch parties when you can just appoint them out of their seats and then duke it out in an open seat? I'm told that Va Gov. Gilmore did this in the late 90's in their state Senate and forced enough special elections to change the partisan control. Time for us to go recruit some candidates...
