Voters have the most questions about Beverly Perdue.

According to Google Suggest, the Democratic candidate for governor turns up the most patterns of searches of the gubernatorial candidates.

Type in "Bev Perdue" here and you get "bev perdue for governor," "bev perdue campaign," "bev perdue north carolina" — similar to the results for her Democratic and Republican rivals.

But you also get "bev perdue chicken" and "bev perdue beer money."

The first search may have to do with her 2004 ads featuring people doing a chicken dance, but the second is clearly related to Richard Moore's ad on an old quote of hers about college tuition.

Whatever else you think about Moore's attacks, the "beer and party money" quote was clearly the most successful.
