Don Henley may be for Lt. Gov. Beverly Perdue, but what about Glenn Frey?

Henley and his wife donated to Perdue's gubernatorial campaign after rival Democrat, state Treasurer Richard Moore, posted a YouTube ad that used an Eagles song.

Moore was asked whether he would pursue a donation from Frey, whose solo hits include "The Heat is On" and "Smuggler's Blues."

"I saw Mr. Frey's golf swing this weekend out at Pebble Beach. He certainly plays a lot of golf," Moore said before realizing what he had just said to a room full of reporters. "Not that I was there. I saw it on TV."
