      Rick Snyder buys straw poll | 19 comments (19 topical, 0 hidden)
      I'm actually not all that offended by it. (none / 0) (#1)
      by Republican Michigander on Mon Sep 28, 2009 at 09:49:34 AM EST
      The straw poll is what it is. It's where the participants were leaning in the vote. How does one win easily? Increase the base. Snyder bought it, but he took advantage of the system. Some college kids got a free trip to Mackinac too. The good news is that the party and hotels got some money from Snyder because of that.

      I'm no Snyder supporter at all because of his center-left views and inability to answer questions, but I'm not that offended by this. Snyder needed some momentum, and did what he had to do to get it.

      The thing to remember is that the primary election is almost 11 months away, and the candidates all know what's going on with this straw poll, and won't be scared off by it. There's also the Mitchell poll out at the same time. Cox was winning there, then Hoekstra, then Bouchard.
