Gavin Newsom twitters candidacy, Eagle responds

The California governor's race officially kicked off today when Gavin Newsom - mayor of San Francisco - twittered that he was running. Although he was considered an obvious contender, the twitter announcement made it officially official. However, taking steam out of Newsom's announcement was Sam the Eagle, who is the potential gubernatorial candidate for the Muppet Party.

In a statement today, Eagle said:

"I've nested in Gavin Newsom's tree many times, so I like the gentleman and wish him luck. But what we need in California are morals, and I don't think Gavin can deliver the goods."

Newsom did not respond, but this seems like further proof that Eagle is planning some sort of candidacy. He's expected to announce soon.
