What's strange about this is a) I almost forgot Thurbert was running for Governor and b) Big Dog isn't supporting the DGA's boy toy Roy. Here's the release from Baker's campaign:
President Clinton to Attend Fundraiser for Attorney General Thurbert Baker's 2010 Campaign for GovernorGeorgia Attorney General Thurbert Baker announced today that President Bill Clinton will deliver remarks at a fundraiser to benefit his 2010 campaign for Governor of Georgia. The event will be held in New York City on Monday evening, December 7, 2009, at the residence of a Baker supporter.
"President Clinton brought people together to build a strong economy and create a record number of new jobs. That's what I will do for Georgia as Governor, and I'm honored to have President Clinton's support and counsel as we work to bring a much needed new direction to our state," Baker said.

Thurbert endorsed Hilldog in the primary. Makes sense.
And I believe Roy endorsed Edwards.
Barnes supported Edwards. I do remember that. Who did Poythress and Porter support? Anyone know?
Poythress was silent because he hadn't returned to the party then. Duh. DuBose was for Edwards.
When was Poythress not a Democrat?
Well, lets see here... Poythress was on the ballot as a Democrat in 1982, 1992, 1994, and 1998... from 1999-2007 he was Commanding the National Guard... in 2008 he supported Democrats... in 2010 he's back on the ballot as a Democrat...
Can someone check his voting record? My guess is that it should be pretty D heavy.
