[emphasis below mine]
Among Republicans on the ballot in Tuesday’s presidential primary, two candidates would offer solid leadership, Arizona Sen. John McCain and former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney. However, when it comes to Michigan’s challenges and needs, the passion and knowledge of Mr. Romney tip the scales in his favor. During a visit with Press editors this week, Mr. Romney vowed, “I will not sleep until Michigan is strong and active and vibrant again.” Because of that focus, MITT ROMNEY has our vote in the Republican presidential primary. We do so in the context of the current president, who has paid only cursory attention to the Detroit Three auto makers and Michigan’s manufacturing woes.
I saw part of MR’s interview with Hannity & Colmes after the debate and thought he was, once again, very strong in his comments on the need to revitalize the American auto industry in Michigan and around the country.
