Rewind this back to 2002.
2nd Amendment. That's a big issue to me as most here well known. What many people don't remember is that it wasn't always cool to be pro-gun, even here in Michigan.
Cox originally had a lot of 2nd Amendment skeptics because he worked in the Wayne County prosecutor's office, and his boss at the time was Mike Duggan. He was there before Duggan became the main boss, but a lot of people just saw the words Wayne County and Prosecutor next to each other and got their guards up.
Cox promised us CCW reciprocity improvements since Granholm at the time was anti-gun and did not help us one bit before 2002. Cox delievered immediately. He also overturned a couple of Frank Kelley's anti-gun AG opinions - and he didn't even promise us anything there.
Politicians rarely promise us stuff and deliver immediately. Mike Cox did deliver. I have not forgotten that, and that is a reason why I'm leaning that way in the gubenatorial race. I'm not making a formal endorsement yet and still am looking to see what Hoekstra, Land, and the rest are going to promise (and their past records), but right now Cox is in the lead for my support.
