Faison’s Face-off

Let me get this straight.
 
According to Rob Christensen’s story today, Bill Faison ran for Democratic state party chair last year at the request of Governor Perdue.
 
Two possibilities: One, Faison is an ingrate for publicly questioning whether Perdue will or should run for reelection – or, two, Perdue cannily spotted a potential rival and tried to divert him.
 
The next question is: how can Faison win the Democratic nomination for governor if he couldn’t beat David Parker for party chair?
 
Also according to Christensen, Faison is a personal-injury lawyer who “made his fortune in medical malpractice cases” and was hurt in the race for chair by “circulation of the details of a nasty divorce suit brought by his wife.”
 
Said one Democrat: “He sounds like John Edwards without the hair.”
