Hope for the GOP, which was the topic of mjb3's post that I replied to.
Pretty much everyone agrees that Gov Whittmer has been totally ineffective.
Fix the d roads was her battle cry, yet she didn't have a single workable idea. Her only suggestion was a 75 cent per gallon gas tax, and there was NO way that was going to make it passed the voters.
The previous admin worked long and hard to find a way to fund the roads, removing sales tax from gas and adding a bigger tax JUST for roads. Moving money here and there to not hurt any single constituency too much. And even that failed at the voting booth.
So when Mrs. Whittmer was running on 'fix the d roads', everyone knew it wasn't actually going to happen.
