Liz,

Adding to the drum beat against any Dem /Obamacare in Michigan will be Terry Bowman as he runs against Debbie Dingell.

Terry noted on an interview on WAAM yesterday this seat is not a "Monarchy" and I think he said they will take his campaign national aka Obamacare.

As an armchair observer of political fights I'll say this will be a race to watch.

Thanks for the heads-up.

John Dingell (right) looks on approvingly as Obama signs
"The Big Effin' Deal"---now known as "The Big Effin" Debacle."

====================================================

Retiring John Dingle's much-younger blonde wife seeking his seat,
could be tagged "Delerious Debbie".....crazy for Obamacare. LOL.

M/M Dingell.....she vuluptuous in strapless red....he can hardly walk.

Republicans had all but written off the Democratic-leaning state last summer after they failed to recruit either Rep. Mike Rogers (R-Mich.) or Rep. Dave Camp (R-Mich.) to run, leaving them with former Michigan Secretary of State Terri Lynn Land (R) as their nominee.

While Rogers is a good campaigner, Dave Camp would have lost this seat Pete Hoekstra style. He's Mr. Debt Ceiling.

Land's won twice statewide and a hard working candidate. I'm not as active as others, but even I've met her and I live on the other side of the state.

and when she has talked publicly has committed minor gaffes. “She misspeaks,” Sarpolus said.

So says the current or former spokesman of the MEA.

Ed Sarpolus was recently Director of Government Affairs for the MEA. Teacher's union.

Terri Land is a pro and not gaffe prone that I’m aware of.

I think she’s a lot like Ruth Johnson in the sense that he integrity grows a lot of respect among democrats who know her.

But I do hope that the unions and Rats pour millions into this race because even if Peters pulls it out, that will be less money to spend on other close races.

I’ll bet that Rats were not expecting this seat to be competitive.

Good.

Exactly, but the media have a tough fight ahead this time.
