    Republicans hold the majority in the state house of representatives.  Many of the members are conservatives, but few are leaders who actively work to advance conservatism.  There are Tom McMillin, Dave Agema, Bob Genetski, and maybe a few others.  We need candidates for state house are like them.

    There are a few people running who are strong candidates to continue that tradition.

    District 41. (Troy, Clawson) I have heard good things about Deb Debacker, a longtime member of the state committee.  She is one of three Republicans seeking this seat, replacing the term-limited Marty Knollenberg.

    District 93. (Clinton, Gratiot) Staunch conservative Tom Leonard is one of four Republicans vying to replace term-limited rep. Paul Opsommer.

    District 104. (Grand Traverse) Tea Party leader and Grand Traverse county commissioner Jason Gillman is running in the primary against Republican rep. Wayne Schmidt.  Jason needs no introduction on RightMichigan.com, of course.

    Are there similar candidates in other parts of the state?

    Tom Leonard (5.00 / 1) (#1)

    I've worked with Tom when he was on 8th District committee, and have known him before that. He's a good guy, solid conservative, and also understands the nuts and bolts issues so conservatives can get elected.

    He had my endorsement as soon as he announced.

    I think (5.00 / 1) (#2)

    it is high time we start bombarding the Michigan GOP regarding the 11th district.  Seems they are not happy with the candidate that has made it on the ballot according to the rules.  McCotter is done and now Nancy Cassis is exploring a write in run according to WJR this morning.  This is just complete BS.  We need to break the necks of the good old boys once and for all and let them know it is WE THE PEOPLE!!!
