LANSING, MI — Former Michigan Gov. Jennifer Granholm was reportedly considered for a U.S. Supreme Court post in 2010 and Energy Secretary in 2012. Could she find a spot in the Obama administration as Attorney General?

Welcome to Michigan Political Points, my weekly roundup of news, views and YouTubes from the state Capitol and beyond.

GRANHOLM FOR AG? Granholm is among the “frequently mentioned candidates” to replace Attorney General Eric Holder, according to the New York Times. Holder resigned Thursday after six years in office.

The New Republic took the speculation a step further, saying Granholm is one the four candidates who will (probably) get the job, noting that she served as Michigan Attorney General before becoming governor.

Granholm is currently working as a professor at the University of California-Berkeley and co-chairs a SuperPAC backing a potential presidential run by Hillary Clinton.

Seems that the same is happening with other GOP lead midwest states as well.

Yes CC...

MI and IN are Right to Work with GOP Governators and IN is more conservative. OH didn't get right to work, but even Kasich is more Conservative than Leer Deeder would like. Hmmm, trying to influence the 2 year cycles and make things look back so Hilda can spout her verbal magic and have the low-info's believe it? Nah, it couldn't go down like that....

It must really pain them that Michigan is now right to work and yes, things are starting to get better. FWIW, I see industrial parcels all around my area back up on the market with big signs, something I haven't seen in 6 years....
