I also haven’t made up my mind about who I am voting for governor. I’d like to vote for Bernero, but I am uninspired by his poor verbal communication skills, some of his policy issues, and what seems like an emerging negative campaign style. My initial concern of corruption illustrated by candidate Bernero accepting money from Maroun (private bridge owner) while having a policy position on DRIC which aligns with Maroun’s business interests still holds even if I can’t prove it.The Detroit River International Crossing seems like a good way to help the economy and add jobs. So when Bernero says no to government money support of DRIC, that makes no sense to me. Our country has a long history of government support of large capital intensive projects that helps propel the nation forward economically. And now that we have the Great Recession, this is a good time to do such projects.

I’d like to hear what Bernero intends to do to generate jobs in Michigan. Instead I am reading emails in which Mark Brewer and Virg Bernero call Rick Snyder names. It is insulting to the voters of the state that Bernero believes ad hominem attacks against a rival candidate are the way to convince us. Also, I am not a yellow dog Democrat, Democratic candidates are capable of being corrupt, or having poor policy choices. Moreover, a multi party system is important because it forces the parties from taking the voters’ needs for granted and treating constituencies with indifference.
