| Kerry and Michigan

Michigan governor Jennifer Granholm (D), has scheduled a press conference for later this afternoon, when she is expected to give Kerry her endorsement.

Recent polls show Kerry with the lead in Michigan, but Dean is determined to win at least that state, although he has been saying recently that winning primaries are not as important as getting delegates. A recent poll shows Kerry leading the Dem field with 37% of those polled likely to vote for him.

Kerry has also picked up key union backing in Michigan, including the Michigan Education Association.
Michigan’s caucus will be held next Saturday, February 7.

Thanks for signing in, . Now you can comment. (Click here should you choose to sign out.)

As you post your comment, please mind our simple comment policy: we welcome all perspectives, but require that comments be both civil and respectful. We also ask that you avoid the extensive use of profanity, racist terms (neither of which we consider civil or respectful), and other boorish language.

We reserve the right to delete any comment, and to prohibit you from commenting on this site, if we feel you have broached this policy. As a courtesy, we will first send you an email noting a violation so you understand the boundaries. This will occur only once, however, and should we ban you from our comment forums we expect that ban to be permanent.

We also will frown upon those who suggest that we ban other individuals for voicing unpopular opinions, should those opinions be voiced in a civil and respectful manner. The point of our comment threads is to provide a forum for spirited though civil and respectful discourse … it is not to provide a forum in which everyone will agree with your point of view.

If you can live by these rules, welcome aboard. If not, then we’re sorry it didn’t work out, and thanks for visiting The Command Post.
