189 Days until Election Day

MORNING UPDATE:

HARVARD…I spent Tuesday at the Kennedy School for Public Policy at Harvard as a panelist on the 2012 plans and reforms for the next presidential primary. It was a great conference and the first time both Republicans and Democrats sat down at the same table to talk about the process.

KALAMAZOO COUNTY…The Political, Candidate & Party Assistance teams were on the road again last night on the Kalamazoo "Unity Road Show". We had a handful of local party people along with District Chairs and County Chair. Special thanks to Gerry Hildenbrand and Fred Taylor for their help in putting this event together.

OBAMA “DENOUNCES” WRIGHT…yesterday Barack Obama criticized the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, his former pastor, saying that Wright's comments about the United States in recent days have been "destructive" and "outrageous." NAACP reaction?

MICHIGAN’S YOUSIF GHAFARI…The U.S. Senate yesterday confirmed Yousif Ghafari to be our Ambassador to the Republic of Slovenia. Congratulations!

HOUSE REPUBLICAN DINNER…Governor Pawlenty will be our featured guest on May 5th at the Rock Financial Center in Novi…more info below.

PETITION CIRCULATORS…time is running out. If you have petitions for federal candidates…please mail them in so they can track their progress. The deadline for judicial petitions have passed. Three excellent Republicans; long-time Michigan Republican Party Legal Counsel Eric Doster, State Representative Kevin Elsenheimer, and former State Representative Jim Howell; will be on the ballot to replace retiring Judge Bill Schuette in the 58-county 4th District Court of Appeals seat.

BILL HARRISON…long time Kent county GOP activist, teacher and friend, Bill Harrison passed away last week. His son Bryan and I worked together for Dick Posthumus. Please keep the Harrison family in your prayers.
