303 Days until Election Day
MORNING UPDATE:
I’m on my way to New Hampshire to pitch Michigan as being “next”. I will be traveling to various candidate headquarters, victory parties and media venues with NH Chairman Fergus Cullen and meeting with NH Secretary of State Gardner to visit several polling places and discuss the presidential primary options for 2012 and beyond.
We are in the process of compiling a complete list of “party events” and “candidate appearances” around the state. If you have any additional information, please send it to our offices ASAP and we will update the list. The list is being sent to state and national media outlets regularly and updated on our web site and blog daily. To see the latest list go to:

Michigan’s primary could be key, regardless of how things play out today.
The Democrats in Michigan are organizing a “Stop Senator Clinton” effort encouraging Obama and Edwards supporters to vote “uncommitted”. This could be the “nail in her coffin” if Obama wins NH.
Republicans have a very competitive contest going on nationwide. Huckabee won Iowa. Romney won Wyoming and New Hampshire is a “dead heat” between Romney and McCain.
Regardless of what happens, Michigan will be critical in either “breaking the tie” or “confirming momentum” or someone’s “firewall” or even another’s “come back”.
As Bill Kristol said on Frank Beckman’s show…Michigan is “ground zero” for the Republicans. Hear his interview on our web page or here:

Take advantage of the many events being planned around the state and come hear and see the candidates first hand. This is YOUR chance to make a difference and be part of electing the next President of the United States.
Don’t forget to mark your calendars for the February 7th county conventions and the February 15/16 state convention in Lansing. If you have any questions about the state convention, please contact DAWN WADE, Events Coordinator (dwade@migop.org or 517-487-5413).
