If I lived in Michigan, I’d be firing up the grill for a big, huge barbecue. Pork ribs, steaks, chicken...the whole nine yards.

Maybe she should declare fish empathy month or something since she’s busy boycotting michigan’s major industries.

Well, Granholm is indisputably a Douchebag, but did she declare Meatout Day on a Friday during Lent? If so given the number of Catholics in Michigan, I hardly see the big deal... Although if I lived there I would ask my priest for special dispensation to go ahead and eat some baby back ribs that day just to take a stab at the douchebag... The sooner ya’ll get rid of Granholm and replace her, even with a more moderate mainstream rat, would be a good thing. Now if we can get rid of that asshole Beshear down here..

MI people have a knack of voting against their own self-interest. It’s greed!

Ahh, Governor Hoekstra.
That has a great ring to it.

“Hoekstra is exactly what Michigan needs.”

That’s right! He’s awesome. But you know how our Michiganders are - still won’t blame Jenny for the horrible mess we’re in. when the next dem comes along, they’ll probably be right there with the votes again.

Back in 2002 she visited the shop I worked at. Clean version, they guys wanted to vote for and be Bill Clinton with her.

God help us if it is Hoekstra. That ass voted for the bail out. He also wants to tax services. Hoekstra is against term limits and he is also won’t push for “right to work” legislation because it is too “divisive” in Michigan.

And let’s not forget that Hoekstra voted FOR the Brady bill back in 1993.

I won’t vote for Hoekstra or Cox.

Hoekstra is the only man with a prayer of winning period.

As I said, God help us.

Don’t you get tired of voting for the lesser of two evils all the time? Surely there must be something more than RINOs, adulterers, and Democrats in this state. I haven’t voted in the last two elections for governor. I left the top section blank and voted in the local elections. Posthumous (or however he spelled his name)? DeVos (with his ditzy wife Betsy)? No thanks! They may have been better than Granholm — which isn’t saying much — but they weren’t my kind of Republicans.
