DeVos, Granholm fire early salvos

Jennifer Granholm debated Dick DeVos in Detroit. Has anyone followed the outcome? With any kind of honest election, Jennifer will become a one-term Governor. In her time in office, she has not done one thing that has helped the state but has blamed President Bush for all the problems Michigan faces. She drones on about jobs being out-sourced without addressing the fact that most of Michigan's outsourcing is not going to other countries but is going to other STATES. Her recent action to increase the minimum wage in Michigan is only going to drive more businesses out of the state and drive out some that already exist.

As long as the dead people don't show up, I figure we'll be talking about Governor DeVos by next year.

Those dead IDs might be walking in as Jose or Maria.

Democratas are so desperate that are selling out our country to the lowest bidder.....

and I'm afraid the Republicans are joining the bandwagon.

Where is the article link?

Sad but true - it would seem that non-tax paying Mexicans carry more clout with both parties than the citizens who are paying the taxes to keep the government running.

Sorry - you will have to go to the Detroit Free Press online to read the article. Free Republic is banned from using their material on our site.

OK, but I thought it was ok to post a link only.

[onevoter]

Sorry - my own mistake . .

DeVos was correct in saying he opposed the ballot proposal to bar race as a factor for hiring and college entrance.

It will pass on the state ballot without the Governor needing to sign it or endorse it.

He prevented Jenny from painting him as a raciest, like she was trying to do in the debate.

Jenny needs to find a new job. Maybe hauling garbage back to Canada would suit.

It's the "bleeding heart" liberal thing to do......and throw in alot of pandering.....

Lawmakers know that these invaders will become citizens and eventually get to vote so they are in ardent pursuit of the "newcomers"!

The laws don't matter anymore......

once the laws start to break down...chaos follows......and then a police state.

It CAN happen here.....people will demand to be protected from the barbarians!!!!!

I think she will lose in November.

The Detroit mayor hates her guts, they are at war.

She will still carry Detroit, but by a much smaller margin than she would have if she wasn't supporting the mayors challenger.
