Boy, someone sure is campaigning for Governor early. It’s almost as if he doesn’t have a job already or something…Is he trying to avoid lying his way into a new office?

In my inbox, a call to sign yet another teacher pay petition. This one is on his campaign site. See below.

Friends,

In just a matter of days, we’ve already had 12,500 people sign this petition. The response has been overwhelming and demonstrates what a critical issue education is and that our teachers need to be paid fairly.

We don’t want this to end here. Our goal is to get 2,500 more people to sign the petition in the next 48 hours. Can you help us?

Forward this email to your friends, post the petition on Facebook, and share it on Twitter. Together, we’ll send a clear message about where our state’s priorities should be.

It’s critical we show the mass support for our teachers. They deserve better than what they’re getting.

Click here to sign our petition and be heard.

Thanks for all your help.
