And you think Michigan Republicans hate Flipper
A GOP presidential poll released this morning shows Michigan-born Mitt Romney is trailing in his home state, losing to former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum by 6 percent.It's hilarious that 'Michigan-born' Flipper Romney can't even beat Rick Santorum or New Gingrich in the great state of Michigan. I guess Republicans need to nominate someone but it doesn't matter who they do because they will get their asses kicked in this state come November.
The margin becomes larger – 42 percent for Santorum to 18 percent for Romney – among self-identified Republicans, who also support Newt Gingrich over the Michigan native. Gingrich was the choice of 24 percent of the respondents.
We have a lot of ignorant, teabagging sheep in this state but we're mostly hard-working, blue collar, blue state patriots here who don't easily forget those who stuck by us when it was crunch time. Or, those who didn't.
And oh yeah, Santorum; we here in Michigan call those, 'legacy costs', commitments. You know, things like pensions and benefits that were bargained for over decades of work. They are not merely something to be sold off so that the 'bond holders' get paid off, with interest, and the workers, those with the biggest stake, get fucked. Somebody smack that smirk off that little punk.
