A business and a City are two different things. Snyder outsourced because he had to save his business. If he had not, then there would be no canidate today.

What I want to see the new governor do is get rid of the crime and make Michigan look nice not only physically, but commercially as well.

I don't like how very accusational Bernero is. He needs to speak only his point and not shove words into Snyder's mouth.

I'm going with Snyder at this point.

I'm trying to decide who to vote for.

I just discovered Virg is an sound-bite speaker. He is a professional speaker with little substance and uses the "He's bad so I'm good" technique. Snyder seems to understand that Michigan needs to get to the core of each issue, and make fundamental changes to the broken system, but he is a terrible speaker.

I guess I want someone who knows what to do and not just what to say.

@mdotjoelint

Thats a lie. He borrowed big just knowing the name GateWay. He never paid back the loan selling it cause the stocks he had no control forcing bank ruptcy. Then it was sold to Acer. Tax deducted the whole thing and ran to politics. You voted you pay. There was no Michigan busienss it was all in China. Look at Whirlpool sat there since Gerald Ford, oh really it was Nixon's idea Ford played with ships in water as Ed weighed to much it's fault. Die pig.

If you actually watch the eyes of the two of them... You can see that the opposite is true Rick Snyder is reading the prompter! Bernero is actually speaking from his notes and looks at the camera not to the top right of the camera...If you listen to Bernero he has very good reason's to poke at the man.... especially with the new evidence of how he is trying to Bankrupt the state of Michigan... If you don't live in Michigan you won't ever know the truth... seriously!

@ExtremeRecluse well one thing they can do is stop being stupid and blaming Americans for their bad decisions.

[ExtremeRecluse]

We are the consumers of the world. When the jobs move overseas, our nation suffers. We no longer are the consumers because people without jobs do have the resources to make purchases. That is how it becomes an international crisis. We not only cannot purchase products made here, but those made in China. If we stop buying products the entire world suffers. There is nothing these politicians can do. The rooster has come to roost and also take a big dump on all of us.
