It could be the Perdue campaign or it could be a right wing Super-PAC.

Regardless, I don't quite buy Tying Nunn to Obama/Obamacare is a win for Nunn in a state like Georgia.
UNLESS the Nunn campaign very quickly gets some facts out there. That lie about Obamacare costing 400,000 Georgians their health insurance is certainly going to be noticed, and unless it's counteracted very quickly it will become truth for many voters (ask John Kerry about that).

I'd think that the Nunn campaign would come out with something detailing the benefits of the Affordable Care Act, saying YES, I support regulations that keep insurance companies from cutting off healthcare for pre-existing conditions. YES, I support being able to keep children on your health insurance until they're 25. etc. etc.
