1. For the life of me, I don't know why they still use those insta-polls.

Shit, Snyder probably even has some his Gateway workers in India Freeping that poll.

Seriously though, I cannot believe that the average person looks at that and really believes it. Then again, maybe I give too much credit to the "Averager" person.

2. Perception is everything.

Even if they don't believe it, they believe it.

This will be an uphill battle if we can't
paint Snyder as the King of Outsourcing.

3. My latest LTE, hot off my fingertips. Hopefully someone will print this.

"Based on recent polls pertaining to the race for Michigan’s next governor, it is clear to me a large majority of Michiganders do not understand that our current economic woes have been decades in the making. Starting with Reaganomics in the 1980’s--followed by horrible trade agreements made in the 1990’s—our state has been ravaged by policies that have literally destroyed the middle class and concentrated the nation’s wealth to an elite few.

That said, I cannot understand why anyone would even think of putting a wealthy Wall Street type with no experience in governing in the Big Chair in Lansing. Although no one we choose will be the magic cure for Michigan’s economic ills, I believe a populist and common sense approach to rebuilding this state is what we need now."
