Michigan primaries are today. But Michigan decided oh like, last month to make the primaries earlier this year, so most of the Democratic candidates aren't even on the ballot. Fucking Granholm.
If you've watched national news lately, I'm sure you've seen coverage of our primary and how badly our economy sucks. All the candidates are pledging to help Michigan, which is just a bunch of bullshit, b/c unless Ford learns how to make better, more fuel efficient, less costly cars, and some serious deunionizing happens statewide (Lifesavers left b/c unions made it too expensive...they are in Illinois now. similar situations in other industries), our economy isn't going anywhere. And really, presidents don't care about individual states all that much.
I'll vote, but damn, I don't have much to choose from. :P
