Rick Snyder is already on the job reinventing Michigan and stuff. How else do you explain THIS? LG Chem to build new electrolyte production plant in Holland, MichiganGovernor-elect Rick Snyder Governor Jennifer M. Granholm today announced that LG Chem, the South Korea-based advanced battery manufacturer with operations in Michigan, will establish a new electrolyte production plant in Holland, Michigan, expanding […]

On the heels of my blog entry last week, I struggled to put what happened to Democrats on Tuesday into some meaningful context. My contention in that blog was the Organizing for America (OFA) was going to change the election in unpredicted ways. And, of course, it appears that I was quite wrong. As Brainwrap has already reported, Michigan was […]

This was VERY popular last year so I’m reposting it with very few changes. I simply don’t have time because, well, we’re just GOTVing our little hearts out here in Ann Arbor today (and tomorrow and Tuesday…) I have added a handful of new ones before I head out the door. Enjoy. I love Halloween but I’m not much of […]

I know Mark Ouimet is popular in Ann Arbor but when you look at the mounting evidence, I urge you to take a second look at Scio Township Trustee Christine Green (Democrat) if you’re even thinking about voting for Mr. Ouimet. First there Ouimet’s abuse of the per diem system as a County Commissioner. Another good link HERE. Then there […]

In Michigan this year, it appears to be the Year of the “Nice Guy” RepublicanTM. We have Rick Snyder running for governor, an Ann Arbor native, and we have Mark Ouimet, a Washtenaw County Commissioner, also from Ann Arbor. They are viewed as “Nice Guys” by many Ann Arbor-area Democrats to the point that many of these Democrats will be […]

Michigan political reporter Tim Skubick noted last week on his blog that Michigan Republican gubernatorial candidate Rick Snyder wouldn’t take selling the Mackinac Bridge off the table. Absolutely serious. The Mackinac Bridge is a Michigan icon. It is often how our state is represented in graphical form. Completed in 1957, it was built without the use of a single taxpayer […]

Hey, kids! Wanna have some real fun tomorrow? Get yourself down to the University of Michigan Diag for a rally with Rob Steele, the teabagger GOP candidate running against John Dingell. It starts at 6:30 p.m. and all the cool kids will be there. Like Wendy Day, Livingston County teabagger organizer and home-schooling Howell School Board member. I’ve written about […]

Mark Schauer’s campaign for his MI-07 Congressional seat has their final ad of the 2010 election season out and it’s a good one. He hits Walberg hard for his party’s outsourcing stance and uses Walberg’s own words to make the point. Mark Schauer: Things are tough right now in Michigan, and there are no easy solutions. But one thing I […]

Mark Ouimet is running for the state House of Representatives in the 52nd District, facing Democrat Christine Green. I have written before about accusations regarding Mark Ouimet’s financial misconduct with regards to tens of thousands of dollars of reimbursements for travel and per diems during his time as Washtenaw County. I have also written about the near slanderous attacks on […]

Yesterday morning on MSNBC, Matt Lauer and Chuck Todd had this exchange regarding the so-called “generic poll” that asks respondents about their party choices. LAUER: …43 percent say they prefer Democrats, 50 percent say they want Republicans. When–did those questions accurately predict an outcome when people actually go into a voting booth and they’re faced not with a generic question… […]
