		<description>I absolutely support Mike Bouchard&#039;s reform ideas,  most especially where &quot;Bouchard has called for switching to a two-year state budget cycle based on a three-year outlook, setting a May 15 deadline to approve a budget, and docking the governor and legislators a day’s pay for each day the May 15 deadline is missed. He also is a longstanding proponent of a part-time Legislature&#039;.  

Knowing the budget is key to governing. I strongly  suggest Mike get into contact with Prof. Klemanski at OU to enlist the help of  former mayor of Rochester Hills  who is  a budget genius and can  be a strategic asset to the Bourchard for Governor campaign.

Re:Virg who?? Bernero&#039;s ready to make his pitch for Michigan governor
 
Laura Berman&#039;s commentary on Lansing Mayor Virg Bernero  possible gubernatorial candidacy was welcomed comic relief  on a cold Sunday morning. This candidate reminds me of one from the 1960&#039;s trying to make the impossible happen it in a 21st century economy. I suppose Bernero&#039;s  signature campaign  song will be the classic Bachman Turner Overdrive tune Blue Collar. 
 
Ms. Berman is absolutely correct in stating &#039;Michigan voters in 2010 aren&#039;t likely to be pushovers for any Democratic candidate&#039; in referring to Pres. Obama&#039;s use of the internet to attract campaign support.  I second her opinion and feel that Virg Bernero&#039;s adaptation of Obama campaign model is DOA because the informed electorate knows Michigan needs much more than a fastalking, telegenic, You-Tube sensation when it comes to leading this state and formulating pro-active public policy that will get our economy back to work in an  aggressive and expedient time frame.  
 
The only noise Bernero should be concerned about cutting through is the sound of the many of us traditionally Democrat leaning voters who are sincerely committed to voting for the loyal opposition in the upcoming election cycle.  Bernero needs to wake up to reality and understand We Won&#039;t Get Fooled Again!
