I'm so pissed off right now - Snyder is a terrible candidate who will kill the Republican party.  If he wins - I'm gonna go crazy tonight.

A local station has declared him the winner - The MI GOP has yet again killed it's chances at what should've been an easy win in November.

My long-time Democratic friend texted me saying he voted for Snyder and will vote for him in November.

Maybe he'll prevail, but I think this'll be a repeat of 2006, with a businessman getting slammed by the things he did in his company.

My biggest problem with Snyder is that he's thrown the MI GOP under the bus before, slamming many Republicans across the state.  I don't think he's a team player, and the fact that he gave money to John Dingell troubles me.

A lot of College Republicans backed him because it was "the cool thing to do," and I honestly don't think most of them know a lot about what he wants to do.

Economically, he's a fine person, but he's a social moderate, and we got lucky that Andy Dillon didn't get the Democratic nomination.  Moderate pro-life Democrat vs. kinda pro-life Republican would've meant we got hammered in November.

Snyder does have a good campaign manager, I'll give him that.

And he's a semi-social moderate.  But I wouldn't even call him pro-choice.  I guess it's not even really that he's that moderate, it's just nobody knows what he is.
