Rick Snyder will lose primary in '14By migopwatch, Section News
~ Promoted for discussion by J. ~
Like most conservatives, I didn't support Rick Snyder in the August GOP primary. Unfortunately, the conservatives spilt the vote and Snyder was elected. Come last week's election, I voted for him because he was better than the alternative. But I'm regretting my vote with today's news that the architect of the 2007 tax increase (the largest in Michigan history) is being appointed to watch over our tax dollars.

Seriously. Andy Dillon, the supposedly conservative Democrat who was rejected by his own party, will be the next treasurer of Michigan. I really don't know why Snyder would pick the outgoing Democrat speaker to be in his cabinet, especially in such a high profile position as state treasurer.
Surely, Snyder could have found a Democrat more sensible than Dillon. Someone like a Joel Sheltrown or Andy Neumann would have much more palatable to conservative Republicans than Dillon. Heck, Snyder might as well name outgoing Lt. Gov. John Cherry or even the governor, Jennifer Granholm, to his team. They would be just as bad as Dillon in the eyes of most real conservatives. I'm also sick and tired of reading mainstream media call Dillon a conservative. What exactly makes him a conservative? He opposes workplace choice (right-to-work), he supports the big government, big spending policies of Granholm and Obama, and he's for universal government-run health care. If Snyder continues this whole Republican-in-name-only approach to governing, he'll surely lose the primary to a real conservative in 2014.
