Leadership Poll: Governor Jennifer Granholm

Governor Granholm's Leadership (4.00 / 1)

I voted yes because I believe she is doing the best she can given what a mess the past Republican Gov left her and what the present Republican President is doing and not doing that affects Michigan's economy.  I think the Republican led Senate should be ashamed of themselves for going on spring break when we are facing such a dire fiscal crisis.  But kudos to the House led by Dems who stayed and worked most of that same spring break. I'm sure they were working closely with the Gov's staff.  My only wish is that she would play hardball with people like Bishop and lay some executive cuts on his district and other Republican's districts who think she should simply propose all cuts.  So I say, cut away at their (Republicans) most cherished items.

That's a good idea ... I'll go one better (4.00 / 1)

Instead of cutting funding for stuff in Mike Bishop's district, why don't we just sell his hometown of Rochester to the Chinese for half a billion dollars?  Using this one-time fix, we'd be able to balance the budget annnnd have enough left over to invest in Michigan.

I like Jen... (0.00 / 0)

and I voted yes, but I'm disappointed that she hasn't ripped Mike Bishops testes off by now.

Then again, I hear rumors that his balls already rest in a jar on the desk of Grover Norquist.

Putting conservatives in charge of our government makes about as much sense as GM hiring a CEO who hates cars.
