42. Snyder for 2016?

Dec 2012

I suppose he will be the "fresh face" the Republicans will be looking for. And busting unions will be a good introductory card.

Still having hard time to understand how can someone like that succeed Jennifer Granholm.

And Romney lost Michigan because he wanted Detroit to fail so how can so many vote for Republicans? OK, so Michiganders are stuck with Snyder until 2014, but what about the House and the Senate?

Jon Stewart, again, had a good take on this. And he had a fair imitation of M&M, er.. Eminem.
