GOP Up In Michigan Governor's Race

The Republican candidate for Governor in Michigan has opened a twenty point lead over his Democratic challenger. The GOP has not won the Governorship in Michigan in decades and during that time the Democratic Party has effectively run that state into the ground economically. Perhaps this can be the moment that the state actually turns around.

Snyder (R): 56%
Bernero (D): 36%
Other/und:  8%

This is just another example of the GOP base becoming riled and the independent voters siding with them. It appears that there will be three debates and the fact that there are so few undecided voters relative to the gap between the candidates that Bernero is probably going to lose.

Senator Levin Assaulted With a Pie.

I cannot believe that this has happened in America.

Senator Carl Levin had an apple pie thrown in his face this morning while talking to Democrats in a Mecosta County, Michigan deli. The reason? He's a defender of Israel, and he doesn't vote 99% of the time down the liberal foreign policy line. Of course my reaction is: And..........throwing a pie at a United States Senator is your only available response?

For some reason this incident is insulting to me. Whether a US Senator be Republican or Democrat; Conservative or Liberal, that individual deserves a certain amount of respect, and what happened in Michigan this morning broke the barrier between respectful disagreement with an elected official, and downright disrespectful intolerance.

Thoughts?
