In the Michigan Senate race, Republican nominee John James remains a long shot against Democratic incumbent Sen. Debbie Stabenow. But he's an especially attractive candidate, and the most recent poll shows him just 9 points behind his overwhelmingly favored opponent.
What's going on here? Some might point to the fierce battle over Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh's nomination. But I think the candidate himself is the key here. As a small business owner who illustrates both the history and progress of the American dream, James is also a West Point and Harvard graduate and a combat veteran.
Although he branched into Army aviation as a helicopter pilot, James earned the Ranger infantry tab. Put simply, James is one impressive guy. And while defeating the Democratic incumbent in nominally blue Michigan will be an uphill struggle, James is not nearly as far behind as you'd expect, given the attention his race has gotten.

Stabmenows had strong pro-abortion backing and $$$ from her start.
Her power is from baby sacrifice.
>>When does the Train Train pull into Michigan? DJT needs to get there to help James. A couple of Mega MAGA Trump rallies in huge venues might flip the seat. Remember the Michigan Trump rally on election eve? Thats what we need.<<
YES! Mr. James needs to deep-six that skank, and a stage appearance with the POTUS will ensure that it happpens. I feel sure our President is aware of the great optics that he and James would project to voters around the country standing shoulder to shoulder working together in the interest of ALL Americans.
Still an improvement.
>>This is the ONE candidate I am really praying for, this man is exceptional I pray the people of Michigan give this exceptional man a chance to lead and govern their state Michigan NEEDS leadership like this for a change!!!!<<
I too am praying for John James and have already donated to his campaign several times. The guy is a role model and an inspiration for all young Americans. He’s the polar opposite of the Kenyan Fraud.
If Debbie Stabenow (D-MI... Trump took by 0.23%) can fall, then how can Sherrod Brown (D-OH... Trump won by 8) not be in danger?
I’ve got 5 votes for him here in my house. I keep promoting him on Facebook too. He absolutely is someone you can feel proud to vote for!
John James for Senate...beat Debbie...
>>Just 9 points? Thats a pretty big lead. Hopefully it will tighten.<<
Yes, but that lead could evaporate overnight if he gets the right supporters speaking on his behalf. His staffers should be in contact with really high profile athletes and entertainers. Kanye West comes to mind, and a couple of dudes (active or retired) from the NFL and NBA could turn it around in a heartbeat.
Agree!!
On the ground here in Macomb Co.
The voter suppression polls do not compute with the John James signage in the front yards.
Debbie Stabenow is OLD SCHOOL corruption and I’m sitting in the county that gave DJT Michigan.
We do need Bob Richie and President Trump to roll through, but I’m pretty sure we can unseat the hag.
Trump and RNC need to get out up there and help James. I think MI and PA are ripe for upsets. James definately needs to get his name out there and get some mo-mo right now!
Agreed. They need to do that.
From your mouth to God’s ears!!!
Wow, how cool is THAT?! Wish I could attend that rally... Stuck in Connecticut.
In the meantime, did you see post #42 above? 🙂
Sis in Marshall says the same thing.
Videos of a Trump/James rally, in a race divided country, would have national appeal.
