Michigan ping ...
Any Republican who promotes the gay agenda should be thrown out of office — and probably will be.
Kick your side in the teeth on issue after issue..........
Sounds just like a RINO to me.
All races have tightened up. This is because they poll democrats more heavily closer to election time. It makes it appear that the race is close, encourages the democrats, and demoralizes the republicans. The race then gets to within a close enough margin that cheating can swing the rest of the votes to the desired candidate. It may not be discussed openly, but it is “understood” by the democrat leaders and their friends in the media, who are responsible for reporting on the polls and not reporting on the fraud.
Why aren’t the moderates & leftists supporting him? He’s their kind of Republican!
In this case, the Democrat is promising to bring the union in to help rewrite the state constitution and is talking about closing charter schools and giving it to the public schools.
As far as the gay thing is concerned, Snyder does oppose gay marriage on purely fiscal grounds.
I just don’t understand the thinking of the general public, especially in my beloved Michigan. I have seen enough elections to see how every Democrat Governor and administration hasten the destruction of my home state and, in general, the Republican administrations have succeeded in starting a recovery from the Dem debacles only to have the electorate vote in another stupid Dem/Commie to start the destruction all over again.
It has plenty to do with those who will accept nothing less than all they want so they sit home and pout on election day.
I’ve been here my whole life and recognize the reality of the situation. We aren’t going to get a Reagan conservative in Lansing at this point. Putting a full on marxist democrat in office just pushes that goal further away.
I’d like to kick Rick Snyder in the ass but I also recognize how far we’ve come since Granholm.
I would beg to differ, I WAS AFFECTED and it certainly pisses me off. I know many other Republican retirees who were also affected and they're just as pissed off as I am.........
It doesn't matter if your tax burden under Spencer went from $0 to $200 or $5,000, the mere fact that persons now on fixed incomes have less monies in their pockets under Spencer than his predecessor...........
All Schauer has to do to insure his election is to announce that he will repeal the Snyder income tax on retirees..............
Since it's not likely, I'm forced to vote once again for the stinking Snyder........
I agree. Snyder did not do some things he should have but he did do some very important things that will, if maintained, help Michigan in the long term. Right-to-Work was unexpected but is one of the great things that happened on his watch and will lead to better economic times if we can keep the Dems from taking over and repealing that landmark legislation.
There have been a series of ads claiming he cut $1.5 billion (or whatever) “from education” (IOW, a smaller figure of taxpayers’ money was kept out of the pockets of the MEA) and gave it to cronies. It isn’t a story, it’s just straight out stalinist agitprop. He’ll be reelected, and Terry Lynn Land will go to the Senate.
Well said!!!
I was stuck with Marky Mark Schauer and the Pepper Sprayed Bunch for two years as a congressman. I don't want him as governor after the job he did.
Rick Snyder is well outside what I can normally accept but that’s not the only factor. We don’t have a terribly powerful governor in Michigan. He has done good things. And then there is Mark Schauer who is modeling himself after Bill DiBlasio.
Mark Schauer was my congressman for 2 horrible years and his only claim to fame was voting for Obamacare. He holds the record fine ever paid in Michigan for campaign finance violations and has done the exact same thing again in this campaign.
Schauer will have us longing for the good old days of Jenny Granholm. The SOB is a vindictive and nasty marxist who seeks to punish all who have opposed him. I could see him bringing in Michael Moore as a labor advisor or something.
