And Karl just pulled all the money out of Michigan. Disgusting!
What better way to rub it in his face than taking the seat anyway.
They did the same crap with my congressman in 08, claiming it was a lost cause and the money would be better spent elsewhere. My congressman ended up losing by a whopping 2% and we got one more vote for Obamacare from the clown who is our democrat candidate for governor. In 2010 my former congressman ran again against the GOP preferred candidate and won the primary and the seat in the general election.
These clowns who are always happy to cede someone elses ground to the democrats need to crawl back in their foxholes and curl up in the fetal position and stay out of the way. They’ve been spouting the same BS about virtually every issue and race in Michigan since I’ve been a FReeper and they’ve been wrong a lot more than they’ve been right.
They said we would never have a republican governor again. Today we have both houses of the legislature, governor’s mansion, state supreme court, elected SOS and elected attorney general. (Not to mention the majority of US representative from Michigan are republican) Less than a month before we got RTW in Michigan, FReepers were telling me that it was a waste of time hoping for something that wouldn’t happen. The same with affirmative action, it took several years but its finally dead in Michigan.
Personally, I think some people just love a whipping boy more than they love winning.
