91 Days until Election Day

August 5, 2008

MORNING UPDATE:

McCAIN IN MICHIGAN…John McCain will tour our Fermi II nuclear plant downriver and stress the need for domestic alternative power to make us less reliant on foreign crude.  We need to maximize domestic oil supplies, nuclear, wind, and solar power…to help put America back to work.

McCAIN CHALLENGES OBAMA TO CALL BACK CONGRESS…and get to work on an energy policy NOW…instead of the 5 week paid vacation the Democrats just gave themselves while we pay at the pump.  Sign the petition to call back Congress now.

PAYING AROUND $4.00…is an outrage that the Democrats have to take responsibility for.  We have the technology, the supply, and capability to make America energy self-sufficient…let’s do it…NOW!

OBAMA’S ENERGY PLAN…inflate your tires!  Yup, we passed out tire gauges at the Obama rally in Lansing to highlight Obama’s meaningless energy program.  McCain has taken the position of leading on “all the above”…we need a comprehensive approach that provides for offshore domestic drilling, nuclear, wind, solar, and other alternative fuels to allow America to become energy self sufficient.

OBAMA…NOTHING NEW…MORE CHANGE…he’s changing so often, on so many positions I’ve stopped trying to keep track of them!  He sure is the candidate for change…on everything…depending on the audience.  Politics as usual.

CANTOR FOR VP…the latest, hot option for McCain’s VP slot is Virginia Congressman  Eric Cantor.  I’ve met with the Congressman several times; he is one of our rising stars within the GOP.  He’s conservative, young, Jewish, and a real leader on the national level.  McCain’s choices just seem to grow and get better all the time.  Cantor, Romney, Pawlenty, Palin, Fiorina, Crist, Huckabee, Sanford, Thune…awesome options!

BARACK OBAMA…THE ONE?!?…this is a video you have to see.  Again, in his own words…it should raise some “doubts” in your mind.

OBAMA…CELEBRITY…Another great video ad about Obama’s status as a “rock star”…President want to be.

Why conservatives should vote Jim Howell for Court of Appeals

Posted on Tuesday, 5th August 2008 by Keith Almli

One of the little-covered races that will be on tomorrow’s primary ballot is the open 4th District Court of Appeals judgeship, which spans 58 counties from Lansing to Port Huron, north through sunrise coast, west towards Traverse City, north across the Mackinac Bridge and west towards the Michigan-Wisconsin border.There are four candidates vying to replace retiring Judge Bill Schuette, a former Republican congressman from Midland: Trial lawyer Michael Kelly and Lansing Judge Paula Manderfield are the liberals and Jim Howell, a former Republican state representative from Saginaw County, and Lansing barrister Eric Doster are the conservatives. Out of the four candidates, the top two will move on to compete in the November general election.

With far-lefties like Kelly — whose Irish name is golden because everyone knows a Mike Kelly and many voters will assume he’s related to legendary former Attorney General Frank Kelley — and Manderfield in the race, it’s important conservatives support a candidate with a proven track record who can win in November.

When I go to vote tomorrow, I’m going to be supporting a candidate who has faced voters before and won in staunchly Democratic districts. I’m going to be voting for a candidate who knows how to campaign — a candidate who will strictly interpret the law and won’t legislate from the bench.

Read more….

I’ll be casting a vote for Jim Howell, the experienced conservative candidate — who’s been endorsed by retiring Judge Schuette.

Howell served his country in Vietnam as a member of the U.S. Air Force. He walked a beat as a policeman in Saginaw and put himself through law school. As a state representative, Howell was chairman of the House Judiciary Committee.

As the Detroit News said when it endorsed him: “He has long experience in private practice, served as a police officer and sheriff’s deputy before becoming an attorney and now is an assistant in the state Attorney General’s Office. A Republican lawmaker, Howell took a generally conservative approach but proposed legislation to revise a Supreme Court decision that he thought was unfair to injury claimants, which shows an admirable streak of independence.”

Others supporting Howell include:

  • Court of Appeals Judge Bill Schuette
  • Supreme Court Justice Maura Corrigan
  • Court of Appeals Judge Patrick Meter
  • Former House Speaker Rick Johnson
  • Former State Representatives Lauren Hager, Ken Bradstreet and Scott Hummel
  • State Representatives Ed Gaffney, John Moolenaar and Tom Casperson
  • State Senators Bruce Patterson and Tony Stamas
  • Former State Senator Michael Goschka
  • Police Officers Association of Michigan
  • Michigan Association of Chiropractors
  • Michigan Bankers Association
  • Michigan Orthopaedic Society
