GOP rebranding update: Can't endorse integrated prom

Controversy, down in Georgia!

Gov. Nathan Deal won't take sides in the controversy over some Wilcox County teens' efforts to integrate their prom.
By email, his spokesman, Brian Robinson, said Deal would have no response to a liberal group's call for state officials, including the governor to speak out.

He wrote, "This is a leftist front group for the state Democratic party and we're not going to lend a hand to their silly publicity stunt."

11. Sounds as bad as Ross Barnett but

this is not 1963. I suppose some in Georgia wish it were, though. Mississippi is at least still going very slowly forward on race issues and Georgia is trying to go backwards. What the fuck?

A publicity stunt huh?
