And there is no question about it. The MIGOP critters want Dave Camp to enter the US Senate race. In fact they are even 'beastly' about it:

"Camp is now seriously considering jumping into the race at the behest of power-brokers back home, according to sources familiar with the congressman's thinking. A small but influential group of Michigan GOP leaders has cranked up the heat on Camp, making the case that he could appeal to independents statewide and win the seat. Camp, they say, has been increasingly receptive to their appeals.

"He's been getting a tremendous amount of encouragement from leaders and donors around the state," former Michigan GOP Chairman Saul Anuzis said. "If you hear enough of that, it becomes tough to ignore." Noting Camp's newfound openness to the idea, Anuzis added: "I'm really bullish.""

Yes, I want Dave Camp to run for US Senate.

But For different reasons.

"The stuff", being empty discourse and meaningless indignation at the IRS targeting the tea party.  From behind the door, the five term congressman and chair of the Ways and Means committee is trying to get in. He should know the door remains closed, and any voter with a remaining functional synapse will be ignoring the pounding for attention.  Camp's office responded to an Examiner article that described continuing IRS abuse of power with

"Congress may be out of session but we're continuing to keep the heat on the Internal Revenue Service.  I wanted to make sure you saw the Washington Examiner article below for the most recent update.  It is outrageous that IRS management continues to target Tea Party cases without any justification.  "

Yeah get the ol tea folk worked up so you can abandon them again.  Go to another dozen 912, Tea, patriot type meetings and tell them some more stories of how you will solve the current set of problems, and if necessary DEFUND the departments causing them:

" You didn't challenge the health care bill's constitutionality in 2010 when it was being debated did you Dave Camp?  How about you Fred Upton? No. I guess not.  And even after PLEDGING to affirm constitutionality for each bill passed in the house, it only took 7 months to lose that pledge in the bottom of the briefcase.

But Dave, did you remember coming to our group meeting in Traverse City?  Remember how you said if some of the mechanisms which were happening did not remove Obama care, then you would try the "de-funding option?"  C'mon man!  THINK, Damn it!

I was the one who asked if you would do it, and you said that was the alternative that was on the table.

..  you had your chance and you blew it."
