WWJ Lansing Bureau Chief Tim Skubick reports Lieutenant Governor John Cherry is about to drop out of the race for governor because there are many, including some Democrats, who say he can't win. An announcement from Cherry could come as early as Tuesday.

Cherry has never officially entered the race to take over when current Governor Jennifer Granholm leaves at the end of the year, but he was considered a front-runner for the nomination. Granholm is term limited.

Skubick reported Monday night there has been speculation that Governor Granholm's strong support for Cherry is more of a liability than an asset.

If you would like to be added or dropped from the Michigan ping list, please freepmail me.

So, besides Lansing Mayor Virg Bernero, who does that leave? I don't like the way this race is shaping up at all.

Damn it! I wanted cherry to run on Grandmole’s record like he said he was.

Now Andy Drillem will run, and he might have a slight chance of winning.

LOL guess running on Granholm’s record isn’t working out.

Isn’t he the one who wanted to tax bottled water because water is “free”?

Yes, the ten cents a bottle tax. Raise the price of a $5.00 case to $7.40. Guess he never knew the water gets returned, one way or another.

Thanks grellis. I’m pretty sure I’ve never even seen a photo of this alleged guy, and am positive I wouldn’t recognize him if I saw one.
