I was wondering when, or if, it would happen. Sure enough, Utah gubernatorial hopeful Richard Martin’s campaign has responded to my post. Johnathan, the “press guy for the campaign” takes one for the team and claims responsibility for the faux pas saying:

My initial realization was “Hey, these are the Tetons,”… but the designer insisted that the mountains came from a stock photo of the Wasatch front.

Johnathan, may I school you in one point? Never trust a designer. See where it gets you? Always side with the copywriter. But I digress.

We’re in the process of changing it actually, because it most certainly is an oversight… but one that could have been avoided had I been more thorough.

Something tells me Johnathan would be a good Secret Service agent. Of course, he did mention, “I will say this though.. its not the actual famous Tetons themselves, just a part of the Teton range.” Uh, kind of beside the point, but thanks for pointing that out.

Two days to respond. Not bad. Glad to see they’re paying attention to the blogosphere.
