Good ole Michigan. What can I say.
Edited on Tue Nov-02-10 09:42 PM by Fire1
Rick Snyder is our new republican govenor and John Dingell ??. We still have Peters as the lone voice in the wilderness. Rick is going to "reinvent" this state by bringing in jobs and deregulation. Sounds like an oxymoron to me. Public school systems will quickly vanish and charters will be the norm. Happy days are here again.:puke: :puke: :crazy: :eyes: :wtf: :argh: :argh:

5. John Dingell lost???? OMG!!!
As a former Michigander,I have always counted on Dingell. I lived in his district. When my dad's passport didn't come before our trip to Scotland, he called Dingell and my dad had his passport in a couple of days. He took good care of his constituents.

30. This "TOO CLOSE TO CALL" in Michigan directly reflects
Michigan's 13 percent unemployment rate. I hope both Dingell and Peters pull it out.

34. THANK GOD!!! Peters and Dingell pulled it out....
We lost in Michigan's state wide offices tonight but STALLWORTH Congressman John Dingell and Gary Peter win, makes me smile just a little bit tonight.

Thank you Washtenaw County (MY COUNTY) for pulling this out for Congressman John Dingell for his 22nd Term!

I had the honor to see my Congressman take on a room full of Teabaggers during the health care debate. He showed a heckova fight for a 84 year old guy. I cannot say how PROUD I am of our District for supporting a Congressman that has always support us here in Michigan 15th.

Also, Congratulations to Congressman Gary Peters too. He is a great Representative for Michigan's 9th District and I am glad that he was re-elected....as he truly deserved it!
