I saw that elsewhere. Land was leading Peters in an EPIC/MRA poll. That’s a democrat polling firm, too.

Carl Levin is still alive???
How the hell old is he? 120?
Thank God there's term limits on human lifespan. Sheesh. We'd never be rid of these people.

If republicans/conservatives turn out this year, it could be an epic azz-whipping for the Rat/Commies.

The whole country needs to purge democrats from office holdings.

The old Democrat voting block in Detroit is a shadow of what it once was. When you look at the rest of Michigan outside Detroit, it has always been Republican, but Detroit carried the state for democrats. Now that Detroit is becoming a ghost town, that is all changing.

Linking & exerpting not allowed. Thanks for the heads up. I make it a point not to click on links to website that do not allow links or excerpts.
If they don't want my bidness, I'm happy to not give it to 'em.

With a little luck, Ruth Johnson will have done all she can do as SOS in a couple of years and can run for the Stupicow seat. I also think Bill Schutte would be a good governor.

Now that Detroit is becoming a ghost town, that is all changing. Now if the Republicans can only stop the ghost in Detroit from voting, they might have a chance.

I wish they could primary Ryan and still keep the HOR seat.

Breaking up the Levin cartel would be a good thing.

Or, Civil War II without the bullets.
Say what u will about the Civil War, but it did resolve forever the issue of slavery.
We may be on the verge of turning back “Liberalism” (a form of slavery) for 100 years. If so, future generations might find it within themselves to thank Zero.

Our SOS and AG were both targeted by voter fraud and take a dim view of it. They've really cracked down on it. I personally suspect its why Detroit suddenly has a white mayor that the Detroit machine didn't want.

If Carl Levin is getting off the Democrat Gravy Train of power along with Waxman and other long held seats, influence and corruption now, it means they (Democrats) understand they are at the bottom layer of the sh!t bucket as far as chances to prosper come November are concerned.
We should redouble our efforts to condemn natural RINO Republican capitulation even before the first hint of battle and DESTROY them in their own primaries. Boehner, Cornyn, McConnell et al need to be pilloried, debased and ridiculed into defeat before they meet their eunich opposition in the general election.
ObamaCare has given us a chance at redemption. We blow that chance by pulling the lever for the lesser of two evils and succumbing to appeaser ‘reason and abused logic.’

It took forever, but they finally look like they are wearing out. There are still pockets of hard blue in Kalamazoo/Battle Creek, Traverse City, and Muskegon though, mainly due to college kids and transplants from Chicago.

Terry Bowman, leader of the Union Conservatives is seriously considering a run for John Dingell’s seat.

Toss ups go to the Dem by default. Maybe not on Election Night, or even a week later, or a month later. After all, it takes time to dig though all of those car trunks.

Toss ups go to democrats where democrats control the process. Now that the GOP has control of the state, Detroit will still go democrat but it won’t do it with 100,000 more votes than people.
