He could have won. Brian Calley was the selected Lt. Governor pick by Rick Snyder. A late nomination by Republicans from the West Michigan Tea Party groups was both surprising and warmly welcomed by about half of those present.
I have absolutely NOTHING against Brian Calley, and know even less about Bill Cooper. But one thing was clear, Cooper could have won this. The video preceding this withdrawal makes it pretty clear. This may seem strange, given my harsh criticisms of the past, but I have come to like Mr. Snyder. Behind the scenes, while the MI GOP leadership was trying to avoid it, he supported Cooper's ability to have a fair vote. He apparently had no objection to it.
This video demonstrates a unique character. Something I have seen a few times recently, even while seeing its alternate. A man CAN put the movement of ideas through a unifying motion and sacrifice his own goals. It is likely this will not be the last we see of Mr. Cooper, as he has shown his ability to look at the bigger picture. The Hat is off sir. (7 comments) Comments >> By JGillman, Section Multimedia
Michigan has its share of "collaborators" with the Obama Pelosi plan of destroying our economy.
One of them targeted by Americans For Prosperity advertising is Mark Schauer..
But next to Schauer's capitulation with the leftist agenda is the liklihood of that by 1st district seat contender Gary McDowell. (below the fold) (3 comments, 90 words in story) Full Story By JGillman, Section Multimedia
This man is one of the most brilliant conservatives around. Given that we in Michigan have recently had our private property rights abridged, I thought it appropriate as a Sunday Feature.

This is a re-posting from MTTM, and a reminder I will be putting together the remainder of the forum, and posting here as I am able. The 86th District Court serves the Antrim, Leelanau, and Grand traverse Counties. The winner of this race will replace retiring judge John Foresman.

I have no idea what GOP Gubernatorial candidate Pete Hoekstra is doing on the east side of the state, but his campaign on the west side has been, in my unsolicited opinion, atrocious.
From what I can tell, Hoekstra has effectively let the lies and unfair characterization of his record by fellow candidate Mike Cox and his allies' go unanswered. The few television ads Hoekstra has run have been less than inspiring. Talking at a camera in a seated position with nothing more than a brick wall backdrop hardly facilitates an effective ad. With just over 2 weeks left before the August 3rd primary, there are reports Hoekstra's commanding lead has shriveled to a tie with Cox in polling. Given Cox's dubious past and sleazy campaigning, this is quite an accomplishment for the Congressman from Holland, MI. Get your act together, Pete. You're about to lose a primary election that should've been a slam dunk.

This is the first of many video sets done recently. ALL videos are available in HD. I will add more as I have them processed.
ONE note.. The content on these videos is NOT to be reproduced into other compilations, or advertisements without the ENTIRE section of video being available in the production for proper context, unless the video is of the particular candidate USING the video for their own advertising, which is permitted freely without cost or liability.
There are 7 sections to this video. By JGillman, Section Multimedia
Bob Carr is running as a Democrat candidate for the 37th District State Senate. He will be facing off with either Howard Walker or Randy Bishop of Traverse City. Whoever wins this race will be taking the seat now held by State Senator Jason Allen.
Readers should note the diverse nature of this district is sometimes overlooked, Carr has tenacity, and was insistent upon being interviewed. He is traveling the district he hopes to represent with his wife, and is selling his candidacy as a team effort, with her serving as a volunteer in whatever community they settle.
