DeVos and Granholm to hold three televised debates

by Andrew on September 19, 2006

Speaking of pirates politics, I see that Dick DeVos and current Michigan Governor Jennifer Granholm will be squaring off for three televised debates in October. The debates will take place October 2 in Lansing, October 10 in Grand Rapids, and October 16 in Southfield.

It should be interesting to see what comes out of these debates regardless of who the pundits say “wins” the debate. Will Jennifer Granholm expound on how she is helping Michigan shake of the economic doldrums? Will Dick DeVos provide some clarity on his plan to turn Michigan around?

Hopefully instead of muddying the political waters with more rhetoric these two candidates for the next governor of Michigan will instead bring some fresh ideas on how to make Michigan better with some hard facts to back them up. Wouldn’t that be a breath of fresh air in the realm of politics?

I agree with you. There has been a lot of passionate back and forth between the two candidates. So far I’ve seen Granholm offer up the most substance. Gov. Dean was chatting on her campaign’s website last night talking about how her jobs plan is one of the strongest in the nation. President Bush’s economic policies have really hurt Michigan and she has done a great job cleaning up the financial mess she inherited. There is more to be done. If the debates are as substantive as we all hope, Granholm should come out on top!
