Well, Virg Bernero got what he wanted: a debate, and he got it.
 
Last Sunday, the two candidates for Michigan governor - Lansing Mayor Virg Bernero (D) and former Gateway chairman Rick Snyder (R) - duked it out in the only scheduled televised debate for Michigan governor at Detroit PBS affiliate WTVS. During the debate, Bernero asked Snyder about the fact that he has workers in China, and all Snyder could do is make up some lame-assed answer.

But guess what I saw the other day? Something I haven't seen yet this election season: an ACTUAL ad for Snyder! In the ad, Snyder explains that Michigan's business tax is the reason why jobs aren't coming to Michigan, and it's lead to half of America's jobs disappearing. In the end of the ad, a young black man named CJ Lee, a manager for Ann Arbor's SPARK program and U of M basketball player says "Rick is our one chance for jobs."

Of course Rick will create jobs... FOR CHINA! Plus, he'll lower taxes... For the rich. While us Michiganders CONTINUE to slave away making substandard wages, our bosses will use that extra money to go on more vacations and spend his money elsewhere.

I think it's sad that Jennifer Granholm couldn't use her time in office to fix this state. Yeah, Snyder's blaming taxes for killing businesses, but the real truth is that the auto industry died because of people buying more-reliable Toyotas and Hondas built in right-to-work states like Mississippi. People down there don't mind $8 per hour, but here, it's unlivable.

Folks, we need to tax the shit out of the rich so this great nation can have a middle class. However, it's dirtbags like the Tea Party who claim that the extra money actually goes to them crackheads in Detroit. Look, if anybody's seen Capitalism: A Love Story, you'd know that the rich were taxed like crazy back in the 1960's and they still lived their hoidy-toidy lives. But then, Reagan came to town and the rich only got richer while the middle class ended up in the same class of the Detroit crackheads Sarah Palin and her teabagger kin oh so despise.

And the tragedy is that Snyder still has a 20-point lead over the passionate Bernero, who unlike Snyder gets to the point. He's passionate while Snyder will only further bankrupt the state job-wise. So what if Lansing's unemployment rate's 12%? IT'S BECAUSE ITS BIGGEST EMPLOYER'S GM! As a matter of fact, GM had a plant that made electric cars there in the 90's. Guess why they shut it down? SO THEY COULD MAKE HUMMERS! Gee, we all know why they got rid of that nameplate. Maybe the government bailout of that company WAS a good thing.

In the end, I'm going to stand up and vote straight-ticket Democrat on November 2nd. It's time that people need to wake up and realize that a lot of our problems are still Bush's and Obama's trying to fight his red tape just to get through. It took our nation over a decade and a half to get out of the Great Depression. It won't take a year and 10 months to get out of what Bush had created.

Rick Snyder: One Tough Turd.
