...right now. They've been live from the Pampa Lanes in Warren, talking to a current auto worker and a former one there. It's all been about Michigan's economy. Gov. Granholm just spoke, saying she was glad the Dems put the primary earlier, otherwise CNN wouldn't be broadcasting all this right now. Mitt Romney will be on Larry King Live at 9 p.m. |

Big deal! Most of the Democrats will be voting for McCain or uncommitted. That'll indicate McCain's true support in Michigan. |

No CNN has been reporting on the economic woes here...it's about time the country started paying attention to it. |

They know. They surely know, but they got their own problems (and relative lack of many others). |

New York media loves to screw Detroit any chance they can get. |

"They know. They surely know, but they got their own problems..." Just don't tell a Michigander who moved there that. ;) |

Michigan and metro Detroit will be used as examples and poster children of what can and will go wrong if action isn't taken early on. Mothers will tell their children to eat all their vegetables, or else children in Detroit will go on starving. And we could go on and on, but to no avail. But, it doesn't hurt to hope once in a while. And we all know that nobody really electable is running for office this time. The eventual winner this autumn might just be the least of all the evils. |

"CNN Broadcasting from Detroit -- right now" "New York media loves to screw Detroit any chance they can get." Actually, I think that CNN is in Atlanta. |

Soon Atlanta will run out of water, Coke will no longer be made and Faygo & Detroit will regain their rightful place in the world. |

LOL, Atlanta to some is the Detroit of the south (well that is the case when it comes to sprawl). Oh, and 401don, PETA will cause Arbys to shut down because they "abuse their cows", Ghetto Butterfly and Smogboy will team up and torch The Weather Channel, Sears and Lowes will plot out a surprise attack on Home Depot and nationwide foreclosures will cause SunTrust to go bankrupt.

And THAT'S why WE drink Faygo... Can we review our successes against Livonia BEFORE we make any further moves on Atlanta? |
