I wrote Sunday that the only way there would be any lessening of the negativity in this race would be a mutual disarmament pact between the candidates. Perdue has gone out on a limb by making that choice without any parallel guarantee from Moore and as a Democrat I respect that.</p></blockquote></div> <div class="node-blog-teaser-footer"> <div class="node-blog-teaser-comments"><a href="http://projects.newsobserver.com/under_the_dome/jensen_on_perdues_pledge#comment"><img src="http://www.newsobserver.com/images/front_new/icon_discussion.gif" width="11" height="7" border="0" /> Comments (0)</a> <!-- If permissions, display edit link at end of teaser --> <!-- End edit link code --> </div> </div> <!-- End check for Teaser Toggle --> <!-- BEGIN AUDIO ATTACHMENT CODE --> http://projects.newsobserver.com/under_the_dome/jensen_on_perdues_pledge#comment ads Beverly Perdue Governor &#039;08 Tom Jensen Under the Dome Fri, 11 Apr 2008 09:53:35 -0400 ryanteaguebeckwith 6200 at http://projects.newsobserver.com
