Governor Granholm...
... has said two things I like to hear as of late.
On Secretary of Education Rod Paige:
Gov. Jennifer Granholm of Michigan, a Democrat, said the comments were made in the context of "we can't be supportive of the status quo and they're the status quo. But whatever the context, it is inappropriate — I know he wasn't calling teachers terrorists — but to ever suggest that the organization they belong to was a terrorist organization is uncalled for."
On Ralph Nader:
Well, of course we've got the experience of last time, and many would say that his candidacy gave the presidency to George Bush.
I think that his supporters would find a home in the Democratic Party and would feel very comfortable with the Democratic candidates.
So, I don't know why this is happening, but I do know that we are very determined as Democrats to take back the White House, and we're certainly hopeful that this is not an impediment.
Or maybe it's because she sounds so good saying it.

Governor Granholm rocks my socks off more often than not. :) I wanted to ride up to Lansing and give her a big ol' hug when she vetoed the legislation that would make abortion illegal in Michigan. It's nice to have someone with a degree of intelligence and common sense in office after Engler!
She's got brains, that one.
I like her. And she's a good speaker. Although I might question Newsweek's claim of "movie star good looks." She's not ugly, but she's no [insert beautiful movie star].
