So a Texas prison inmate took forty percent of the vote in the West Virginia Democratic Primary. When someone in prison gets that many votes, you have to wonder how deep the President's support actually is.
North Carolina has passed a gay marriage ban. Indiana Republicans have given Richard Lugar the boot. It looks like conservatism lives.
Allen Park, Michigan failed to pass a millage which was intended to stave off an emergency manager. Should that actually become necessary, will Governor Snyder treat Allen Park with kid gloves as he did Detroit or simply march in? Our bet in march in. He can't appear to treat Allen Park differently than Benton Harbor.
Speaking of the Governor, he has signed into law something which will allow gun permit owners to carry tasers. Why not? That's better than using the gun, isn't it?
Will GOP Presidential hopeful Mitt Romney be hurt by his auto bailout remarks from the 2008 campaign? Perhaps. Yet the ones doing the hurting are the ones lacking in objectivity, not Romney. Corporate welfare is welfare as much as any other kind of welfare.
Even Ypsilanti has gotten into the tax rejection game. Voters rejected ballot initiatives for new revenue by about a 2 to 1 margin. As we said, conservatism isn't very much alive.
That's the way it is, Wednesday, May 9th, 2012. Good day.
